Humanismo e emancipação na ética normativa de Frantz Fanon

Abstract

This document intends to discuss the work of Frantz Fanon (1925-1961), in order to investigate the possibilities of conceptual and practical updates referring to the context examined by the author. From the question: "Is it possible to define a philosophy of action and, therefore, an ethics based on the concepts of humanism and emancipation in the work of Frantz Fanon?", it is intended to delimit his applications and propositions in line with the present reality. Our work focuses on the analysis of the book "Os Condenados da Terra" (1961), but will also seek support from commentators and works of similar thematic and critical exercise. Our objective will be to interpret the fanonians themes seeking an update and possible applicability to the contemporary context. The intended diagnosis of a philosophy of action related to the concept of radical humanism and emancipatory praxis will also be the result of an approximate dialogue between Frantz Fanon's thought and Enrique Dussel's theory of liberation.
