CRUZ, Enrique Normando  and  CRUZ, Gustavo R.. The Meaning of History in Kusch and Reinaga and The Construction of an Indian-Indigenous Thinking. Latinoamérica [online]. 2020, n.70, pp.127-149.  Epub Oct 07, 2020. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2020.70.57179.

The article reviews the relationship between history and philosophy in order to study the Indian-Indigenous question in Latin America. For this purpose, the authors analyze the meaning of history in the construction of the Indio-Indigenous thinking in a work of the Argentine philosopher Rodolfo Kusch, and the Quechua-Aymara thinker Fausto Reinaga. First, the researchers present the interdisciplinary methodology to study the Indio-Indigenous question in America. Second, the paper studies Kusch’s historical criticism in the book The Denial of Popular Thought (1975); and the reconstruction of the Indian history in Reinaga’s Kollasuyu in his work The Indian Revolution (1970). The article concludes with proposals for a history and philosophy concerned with Indian-Indigenous matters in the past and present.

Keywords : History; Philosophy; Indio-Indigenous; Kusch; Reinaga.
