Abstract

Philosophy must assume the paradox that constitutes it: it has a clear vocation for universality, but at the same time it is always inscribed in a specific spatial and temporal context. On the occasion of the creation of the Red Iberoamericana de Filosofia (RIF), which aims to defend Philosophy studies in the educational system, to structure the Ibero-American philosophical community and promote thought in Spanish and Portuguese on a global scale, this article outlines a geopolitical and geopolitical reflection on the many historical strata that have shaped the Ibero-American cultural space and on the need to have philosophical institutions such as the RIF, to counterbalance the geopolitical and geophilosophical hegemony of the Anglo-American cultural space and the growing power of space Indico-Pacific.
