“…Por un lado, esto significa que sólo las experiencias europeas condensadas en teorías europeas no son suficientes (cf. Kozlarek 2014). Pero eso también significa que no puede tratarse de querer volver a ignorar las experiencias con y en un mundo común.…”

In this paper, I am pretending to unfold an argument in favor of Enlightenment without ignoring its problems. I have three reasons for such a defense of Enlightenment. Firstly, I believe that the alternatives that impose themselves when we distance ourselves to far from Enlightenment are not very attractive. Secondly, it is my contention that the potential of Enlightenment has not yet been exhausted. Thirdly, I understand Enlightenment as a "critical cultural practice" that prepares us in a very particular way for the global entanglement of human affairs because it pushes us, time and again, to examine our own cultures critically.
