VENABLES BRITO, Juan Pablo. Intellectual Colonialism as a Comprehensive Obstacle to Neoliberal Capitalism. For a Peripheral Global Sociology. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2022, vol.67, n.245, pp.395-420.  Epub 21-Abr-2023. ISSN 0185-1918.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2022.245.76566.

This paper analyzes the main problems that intellectual colonialism presents for the understanding of global historical phenomena -specifically capitalism in its current neoliberal version-, in order to demonstrate that this obstacle does not only concern the peripheries, but social sciences in general, since it prevents an adequate understanding and characterization of these phenomena. After reviewing the main hindrances, particularly in relation to Latin America, the article proposes the bases for the development of a global sociology of a peripheral kind: 1) questioning the assumption that mechanizes the North-South relationship as a creative pole and a repetitive one; 2) decentralizing its supposed modern origins; 3) highlighting the agency that the different actors have in the relationship -thus evincing its intrinsically relational character-and revealing the (colonial) power relations that the allegedly universal approaches hide. In this way, it is intended to favor an effectively global view without denying the situationality of all knowledge.

Palavras-chave : intellectual colonialism; capitalism; neoliberalism; peripheral disjunctive; global sociology.
