Resumen
MANSILLA, Hugo Celso Felipe. Contra la práctica tan aplaudida de hacer pasar elementos autoritarios como diferencias culturales de origen autóctono. Enfoques [online]. 2011, vol.23, n.1, pp.5-21. ISSN 1669-2721.
The text is a criticism to the contemporary theories that proclaim the incomparability of "civilizing projects" in the Third World, due to the existence of a wide and deep cultural diversity which would make it impossible to find a historical "meta-criteria", from which positive and negative aspects could be judged. As a matter of fact, this would imply that many authoritarian aspects of many socio-cultural governments would be omitted. Examples of the Islamic world and Andean regions in South American are analyzed.
Palabras clave : Authoritarianism; Andean justice; Islamic world; Post-modernism; Cultural relativism.
