| Sumario: | This paper analyzes some of the approaches of Leopoldo Zea's thought in the matter of human rights and his humanist philosophy, highlighting his contributions around the concept of the universal that is modulated and understood in a situated way in each historical-cultural context of the Latin American region. For this, the different civilizing projects that, since the arrival of the Spaniards, have been tried to be applied to the political, legal and socio-economic reality in Latin America are exposed, such as the Iberian, Saxon, conservative, liberal, liberating and assuming projects. Likewise, in a creative way, it reflects on the "Calibanesque" use of Law, as an example of legal pluralism, using the figure of Caliban, one of the characters in the novel The Tempest by William Shakespeare, as a pretext. |
