Resumen
LOPEZ NAJERA, Verónica Renata. Journeys of a constant thought: The development of Latin America as an object of knowledge. Andamios [online]. 2012, vol.9, n.20, pp.89-113. ISSN 2594-1917.
In this article I propose a two moment characterization of the trajectory of Latin American critical thought. In the first, I recognize the shift form thought to theory, and the characteristic features that paradigms of self-reflection generate. The second moment is consecuence of the changes that military dictatorships involved for social reflection in the region. This new stage is characterized by the centrality of deco-lonial perspective. I reviewed the proposed pattern of modern-colonial domination in the light of new trends in critical thinking. Finally I note the importance of social movements as sources of knowledge.
