description The article is a critical reflection on the ideological phenomenon of the South, called, Philosophy of Liberation. In this, three aspects are analyzed: first, the exacerbated use of historical reflection above all positive happenings; Second, his doxological pretension that ends up being a Judaization of thought in Latin America; And third, the terrible paradox that this way of thinking offers: the application of a decolonial method necessarily implies a place of power from where the oppressed judges the history and the world of the life of the oppressor. The proposed methodology for this examination is the deconstructive, orientation action that will allow us to highlight the conceptual contradictions of such a movement. For this, the text makes a reflection on two movements that gave origin to him, the Critical Pedagogy and the Liberation Theology. Finally, the text shows the contradictions of this way of thinking, presenting the decolonial action as a norm to be applicable to any historical process of exclusion, marginalization and colonization, producing a discourse of power which has been determined to reject.

El artículo es una reflexión crítica sobre el fenómeno ideológico del sur, denominado, Filosofía de la Liberación. En este se analizarán tres aspectos: primero, el uso exacerbado que los autores hacen de la reflexión histórica por encima de todo acontecer positivo; segundo, su pretensión doxológica que termina siendo una judaización del pensamiento en Latinoamérica; y, tercero, la terrible paradoja que esta forma de pensar ofrece: la aplicación de un método decolonial implica necesariamente un lugar de poder desde donde lo oprimido juzga la historia y el mundo de la vida del opresor. La metodología propuesta para dicho examen es la deconstructiva, acción de orientación que nos permitirá poner en evidencia las contradicciones conceptuales de tal movimiento. Para ello, el texto hace una reflexión sobre dos movimientos que le dieron origen, la Pedagogía Crítica y la Teología de la Liberación. Finalmente, el texto evidencia las contradicciones de esta forma de pensar, al presentar la acción decolonial como norma a ser aplicable a todo proceso histórico de exclusión, marginación y colonización, produciendo un discurso de poder el cual se ha empeñado en rechazar.
