European hegemonic Modernity is essentially colonial, as it self-erects itself as the only fully rational and authentically human project that denies all otherness, including Nature itself. Modern state law emerges from this matrix and gives it legal cover. For our part, we believe that the new Latin American constitutionalism can represent an opportunity for an alter-civilisational decolonial law through the integration of new interpretative frameworks, such as the biocultural perspective (which focuses on subject-culture-Nature relations based on the recognition of the latter as a subject of rights) or legal pluralism.
