Abstract
Liberation philosophy is crucial in both theoretical and practical aspects in the Latin American region, therefore, as an independent school of thought, it is of great importance for further study. The aim of this research is to understand liberatory philosophy, which is introduced as a lesser-known philosophy in our scientific communities. The main basis of this philosophy is proxy and the issue of justice, and the specific approach of this Latin American philosophical thought is in support of the deprived, workers, victims of racism, women, and in general all the oppressed and oppressed. On the other hand, in contrast to classical philosophy, the issue of globalization, capitalism, imperialism, and neocolonialism is placed. In liberatory philosophy, a type of discourse is raised that is concerned with the (other) as a damaged and deprived individual. The concern of liberatory philosophers is to get out of philosophical debates and theoretical and ideological discourses. In fact, liberation philosophy can be described as a transcendent, pragmatic discursive thought with a transformative and revolutionary approach to social life. This philosophical thought, aligned with the liberation church, which represents liberation theology, are two important branches of liberation thought, the fruit of which is the emergence of liberation revolutions. This article, by describing liberation philosophy and introducing its ethical, political, and economic branches, proves the importance of the study and will in some way pave the way for subsequent comparative studies in this field and can share many common points with Islamic justice-oriented thought and the struggle against oppression.
