In his book La rebellion de los genes, Manuel Zapata Olivella raises a theory of the miscegenation that reconciles this concept with the diversity and the otherness. The miscegenation does not imply exclusion of otherness or elimination of diversity. Diversity is not subsumed under a single identity and otherness is not a perspective foreign to itself, but constitutive of his idiosyncrasy. The Other is part of the self and the recognition of this situation is a process of decolonization. To explore this approach, first examine the concepts of colonialism and alienation, with its central theme the category of idiosyncrasy. Next, we examined the relationship between diversity and miscegenation in the theory of Zapata Olivella. Then, we analyzed the relationship between the concept of miscegenation and the Other. Finally, we study the normative horizon of decolonization.Keywords: Diversity, Otherness, Identity, Miscegenation, Zapata Olivella |
