Integrating Contradictory Perspectives in Latin American Philosophy: A MultiAlism Approach

Abstract

This study explores the integration of indigenous philosophies and postcolonial modernist theories within the framework of MultiAlism, highlighting the potential for dialogue and synthesis between these diverse philosophical traditions in Latin America. MultiAlism, a concept developed by Florentin Smarandache, is utilized to bridge the gaps and contradictions between these systems by focusing on areas of neutrality such as cultural diversity and power structure critiques. The research emphasizes the importance of incorporating both ancestral wisdom and modern critiques to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of Latin America’s rich philosophical heritage. This integrative approach offers practical insights for developing inclusive policies and advancing social justice efforts within the region. Looking ahead, the potential expansion of MultiAlism’s application to other global contexts suggests its broader relevance for addressing contemporary challenges through a flexible and holistic philosophical approach.
