• Resumen

  • Contemporary international protection of Human Rights is characterized by a domination logic which is a legacy of a Modernity – unity via marginalization, denial or annihilation. This domination can be understood as a civilizational domination dynamic, as it is expressed according to three civilizational domination axes (exclusivism, evolutionism, orientalism). I argue that traditional Brazilian legal scholarship is reified because it lacks the capability to perceive those civilizational domination patterns (not-sensed political tensions) in pure and practical reasonings of International Human Rights.
