GARDUNO GARCIA, Moisés. Recovering Self-narratives in the Arab Revolutions: Cultural and Epistemological Conventions to the End of Postcolonialism. Desacatos [online]. 2014, n.46, pp.124-139. ISSN 2448-5144.

The so-called "Arab Spring" has been an example of social empowerment and promotion of new epistemologies for a new historical memory without oppression, censorship nor Eurocentric significance. In this sense, this paper defends that linguistic manifestations and other cultural conventions with which Middle Eastern society has regained his own voice, a voice kidnapped by dictatorial regimes, are a series of narratives that become an empowerment and political element of mobilization to weaken and, in turn, to end the postcolonial behavior regime that has framed and redefined the past and present of these peoples in order to dominate and determine them for the benefit of extraterritorial sponsors.

Palabras llave : epistemological violence; contestatory language; revolutionary; narratives; end of postcolonialism; coloniality.
