Abstract

https://doi.org/10.1590/2179-8966/2025/87348

In this short text, philosopher Denise Ferreira da Silva positions raciality at the center of the theoretical debate on justice and then offers "an outline of a thesis and a praxis as a contribution to the preparatory work of unthinking that is necessary to figure decolonization as the objective of a transformative theory of justice." The author indicates and summarizes some of the propositions that would gain space in the later development of her intellectual project, such as global justice, justice as the restoration of the total expropriated value, black feminist praxis, among others.
