Abstract

Neoliberalism as a totalitarian social project conditions social practices to the repetition of colonial structures, by increasing the overexploitation of labor and extractivism as a correlate of collective dispossessions. Therefore, it insists on racist stratification with the purpose of segregating human groups based on the social division of labor. Stopping these human rights violations requires the collective appropriation of political and economic rights. Meanwhile, this research has the purpose of analyzing the Ethics of the Common Good as an overcoming of racist societies. It is a bibliographical, diachronic study, organized from a rationalist-deductive approach. The emancipatory capacity of communities is highlighted to the extent that they legislate for their own well-being. He concludes that solidarity provisions vindicate dignity; being the support of democratic relations. Thus, fair coexistence results when intercultural relations are formed based on plural and tolerant dialogues.
