Abstract

The main objective of this text is to collect historical-philosophical support for a reflection on the demand, recognized as legitimate and necessary today, for a critical review of the Euro-ethno-centric concept of universal. In this context, the examination of the notion of ‘historicity of the universal’ leads to the recognition of the fruitful possibilities that such a review provides for a philosophy of interculturality, with developments in an intercultural perspective of fundamental rights, made from the historical experiences of different ‘worlds of life’ considered equally.

Keywords: Human Rights, Revolution, Eurocentrism, Interculturality, Perspectivism
