Abstract

Modernity from conception of Western Europe has been criticized and debated by Dussel, discussing the historical position of Europe as the center, and proposing from this Trans-modernity project, which looks for that peripheral cultures, which have been oppressed and colonized by Europe, come in an intercultural dialogue. However, the utopia proposed by Dussel, has certain categories and guidelines that can be criticized from the way that the author exposes; point from which I do my critique about trans-modern project.
