Exploring the intellectual foundations of the concept of the Other in Latin America, Eugene Gogol integrates Hegel's dialectic, Marx's humanism, and local emancipatory thought. The study examines the interplay between liberatory philosophy and contemporary social movements, addressing capitalism's impact, ecological challenges, and self-liberation practices in the region. By engaging with influential thinkers and highlighting ongoing struggles like those of the Zapatistas and Brazil's Landless Workers Movement, Gogol emphasizes the urgency of theorizing Latin America's complex social dynamics.
