when necessary. They do not comprehend or recognize one another; yet, neither seeks to
destroy or aggressively exclude the other. It is this incongruous attitude, garmented in

what makes it in certain sense more modern (open towards other cultures) than the other

These theoretical contributions of Bolvar Echeverra are confronted conceptually in my
research project For a Critical Theory from the Americas with the critique of ideology from
the classical Critical theory (M. Horkheimer, Th. W. Adorno, H. Marcuse, F. Neumann,
O. Kirchheimer, W. Benjamin), inspired in G. Lukcs History and class consciousness,
whousing the terms of B. Echeverraonly analyzed the ideology of the realistic ethos.
Our project is now (I am part of a working group in Mexico in Latin America), to
reorganize the debate on Critical theory-beyond Habermas and Honneth et al.in the
original radical (radix) way, but overcoming the mentioned limitation, unfolding in that
way a Critical theory from the Americas.
