This review examines how globalized equality discourses, like political correctness, lose their historical context in new cultures. Satire offers a rich narrative tool to revive emancipatory struggles by reconnecting with ethical traditions.

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Cultural Studies
  • Philosophy

Context:

  • Globalization standardizes equality discourses, detaching them from their historical and cultural origins.
  • The concept of 'politically correct' in Argentina is analyzed as an imported discourse lacking local genealogy.
  • Critiques of emancipatory struggles often stem from their original contexts and satirical traditions.

Purpose:

  • To review problems associated with emancipatory discourses against prejudice and discrimination.
  • To explore the impact of globalization on the standardization and decontextualization of equalitarian discourses.
  • To investigate the potential of satire as a tool for revitalizing emancipatory struggles and recovering ethical values.

Summary:

  • The article discusses the challenges faced by emancipatory discourses against prejudice and discrimination, particularly how globalization leads to the standardization and decontextualization of these ideas.

  • It uses the example of 'politically correct' in Argentina to illustrate how imported discourses can lose their original critical edge and historical grounding.
  • The study highlights satire as a valuable narrative strategy that allows emancipatory struggles to overcome limitations, rediscover ethical traditions, and challenge dogmatic viewpoints.

    • Impact:

    • Satire can help emancipatory struggles regain narrative richness and recover core ethical values by challenging crystallized and dogmatic interpretations.
    • By re-engaging with cultural traditions, satire provides an ethical reserve to support contemporary fights against prejudice and discrimination.
    • This approach suggests a method for adapting universalist discourses to specific cultural contexts, ensuring their continued relevance and effectiveness.
