ALTAMIRANO MARTINEZ, Héctor Alberto. Democracies for liberation as utopia “nuestroamericana”. Justicia [online]. 2018, n.34, pp.490-506. ISSN 0124-7441. https://doi.org/10.17081/just.23.34.3404.
This article presents the idea that Tomás Moro made public 500 years ago: an ideal country, where human beings live in a social climate of harmony. This idea has great power for the thought and action of subjects and groups that seek to change the existing reality. For this, an approximation will be made on global, regional and local aspects, which will allow to argue the need to question what happens in our contemporary societies. This work will stop at the work of three authors who are referents: Roig, Hinkelammert and Cerutti Guldberg. The work of these authors will allow us to reflect on the importance of utopia to think and begin to explore other worlds that today become necessary. Finally it will be proposed to think of democracy as a way of liberation of human beings. Today the democracies that we have called hegemonic (Altamirano, 2016) do not take into account two fundamental aspects of life: human beings and nature. In this way, it is proposed to think-act in the direction of liberating (and therefore utopian) projects, in which human beings become subjects of changes.
