Aimé Césaire y la vigencia de su discurso anticolonial

This work is the result of a reflection on the life and work of the Martinican thinker Aimé Césaire. It succinctly exposes the enormous validity of Césaire's important theoretical legacy, especially his concept of Negritude, the contributions of his critique of structural racism, colonialism and the various manifestations of fascism. Another relevant aspect of the reflection of the Caribbean intellectual is his questioning treatment of the idea of an abstract universal that repositions it based on the incorporation of multiple particularisms as an aspiration for more just and egalitarian societies. Finally, Césaire can be considered a precursor of decolonial ideas insofar as he provides input for deconstructing the various modalities of imposition of the coloniality of power, knowledge and being, as later developed by the Modernity/Coloniality Research Group.
