Summary: |
When historically reviewing Latin America�s ideas, it becomes
mandatory to establish frontiers in an attempt to create an
action field to support the study. This implies talking about the
philosophical systems in and from a historical framework, the
European conditions and the places where thought was built.
The objective of this document is to approach the Latin American
positivist ideas in the XIX century, identifying three main elements:
the concept of �positivism� � where qualities and distinctive
features will be explained � the positivist trend and its principles,
illustrated by Augusto Comte and Herbert Spencer�s systems,
two of the most aknowledged theoreticians in our continent,
and finally an approximation to a possible systematization of the
influence that the practice of this philosophical trend had during
the XIX century in Latin America. |
