Liberación-sin más: ¿Una discusión deslavada? Re-lectura en clave destructiva acerca de la filosofía en Latinoamérica.Liberation – just it: A fading discussion? Rereading in destructive key about philosophy in Latin America.Recibido: 25/04/2013 ∙ Aceptado: 22/07/2013Resumen Si la interrogante en torno a la autenticidad de la filosofía latinoamericana se ha proyectado en un repliegue teorizantemente academicista e insti­tucional como síntesis de la tensión liberación-sin más, es algo que puede apreciarse desde una mirada directa al debate Salazar Bondy–Zea. El cami­no trazado para un pensar realmente histórico, sin adjetivos, rigurosamente crítico y radicalmente liberador, se aplica sobre la base de cierta tradición investigativa que sigue siendo el referente de las ideas filosóficas, razón por la cual permanece funcionalmente enajenada en el perfil especulativo inherente a la racionalidad moderna, base de un discurso igualmente dominador. Desde la ‘clave destructiva’ es posible apreciar esta inflexión que tiende a soslayar el análisis rupturista como posibilidad reflexiva, y con lo que parte importante del filosofar queda sujeto a estructuras que lo desenfocan de su quehacer radicalmente cuestionador y problemático.Palabras clave: Filosofía - destrucción - enajenación - liberación - ‘sin más’ AbstractThis article examines the authenticity of Latin American philosophy from the debate between Augusto Salazar Bondy and Leopoldo Zea. This debate is an academic and institutional theoretical synthesis of the “simply, liberation” tension; the discussion is permeated by the speculative profile of modern rationality. From a destructive approach, this article explores this turning point which usually sidesteps the breaking-up analysis and its reflexive possibilities; in this way, an important part of philosophising is subject to certain structures which get it out of its problematic and enquiring focus. Keywords: philosophy - breaking-up analysis - alienation - liberation - “without more ado”

This paper focuses on an analysis of the ethical concepts of two of the founders of Latin American philosophy, Carlos Vaz Ferreira and his moral philosophy and Alejandro Korn and his philosophy of freedom, and a contemporary thinker, Enrique Dussel. At the heart of this analysis is the Philosophy of Liberation developed by Leopoldo Zea, Arturo Roig and Dussel, among others. I explicate Dussel's ethics of liberation and its philosophical grounds from his recent writings on the problematic of the foundation of ethics, and go on to discuss the architectonic of the ethics of liberation and the foundation of ethical principles. The analysis involves issues of truth and validity, and the application of principles. Dussel's theory is assessed in comparison with the discourse ethics of Karl-Otto Apel and Jürgen Habermas.

This article has two parts; how we have arrived at Latin American Philosophy, why we pursued this question and what the current state of affairs is; in the second part we discuss how we can develop new models to reach a universal philosophy for an intercultural world. At the beginning of the XXI century Latin American Philosophies will be very important in reaching this goal.

The development of philosophical ideas in Latin America has tended to reflect the major philosophical thought in Europe. There probably has been greater interest in philosophical ideas in Latin America than in the United States. In many instances, this interest has manifested itself not in the creative development of the content of philosophy but rather in the support which philosophical positions could provide proponents of the status quo or reformers with a basis for justification of social, political, educational, economic or religious programs.There has developed in many Latin American countries during this century an increasing number of works which are concerned with the theoretical aspect of philosophy.
