Abstract

In this paper, I propose, first, to reflect on the characteristics of philosophical inquiry, the task of philosophy of law in relation to the vision of intercultural philosophy. Philosophy is plural because it is a “task context”. Otherwise, it is imprisoned in an arrogant tradition which seeks exclusive center of all possible exercise. Then it is possible to encounter it in many and varied places and forms of expression. You learn to philosophize reading the classics. However, in the line we are following, philosophy is not only a study of texts, a discipline, but also a “contextual knowledge”. The latter is not about knowing mere ideas or learning systems of thought, but, above all, it is a true knowledge and the method to acquire it. Contextual knowledge is articulated within relevant historical processes, so the philosophical context is fundamentally practical.
