    Características e implicaciones epistemológicas de la crítica de Enrique Dussel al eurocentrismo
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2024-09-12) Contreras Contreras, María José; Carchi Carchi, Mayra Maricela; Palacios Cordero, Mireya del Pilar
    The thesis examines the epistemological implications of Enrique Dussel's critique of Eurocentrism, a relevant but underexplored topic in existing literature. Despite recognition of his contributions to Latin American thought, there remains a gap in understanding the epistemological aspects of his ideas. The study adopts a qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive approach, focusing on a bibliographic review and content analysis of documents related to Dussel's critique of Eurocentrism. The research is structured into several chapters, each addressing a specific objective that contributes to the overall analysis. The first chapter discusses Dussel's theoretical perspective on modernity and Eurocentrism, reviewing previous studies on his work. The second chapter identifies the epistemological characteristics of his critique, detailing the qualitative approach and analytical methods used. The third chapter places the epistemological implications of Dussel's critique within decolonial narratives that oppose Eurocentrism, highlighting how these narratives develop in the context of globalization. Finally, the work synthesizes the key findings, underscoring the relevance of the identified epistemological implications and suggesting future research directions to explore Dussel's impact on other aspects of Latin American thought, particularly in relation to decoloniality and the critique of modernity within a globalized framework.
