ABSTRACT
Within the framework of the hypothesis about the end of an era, the chapter uses the ideas of Raimón Panikkar and the decolonial school to suggest that, given the increasing interaction between people of different cultures we need to go from tolerance to hospitality and to open ourselves to radical pluralism and intercultural dialogue. There is an elaboration and concrete stories to suggest that the dialogue of saberes is a necessary step to escape from the colonial prison, but it is not enough: we need the dialogue of vivires, lived experiences, which is the only one that may allow for the constructions in which many worlds can be embraced. The text is based in an intervention in the seminar “Dialogue and interepistemic conflict in the construction of a common home” organized in the Universidad Iberoamericana Ciudad de México in 2019.
