RETHINKING HUMAN HIRHGTS FROM ENRIQUE DUSSEL’S THOUGHT

Abstract

Based on Enrique Dussel's Ethics of Liberation, mainly based on his architecture of three principles, a foundation of human rights based on three pillars is proposed: alterity, liberation praxis and the living subject. It is a foundation that overcomes the dichotomy created in the dispute between the currents of iuspositivism and iusnaturalism, and focuses on the historical reality of the global South.
