आधुनिकता और उपनिवेशवाद एक ही सिक्के के दो पहलू हैं, और वास्तविक ज्ञान उन सीमाओं पर सोचने से आ सकता है जो उपनिवेशवाद ने खींचीं।

Mignolo counted Du Bois’s “double consciousness” (The Souls of Black Folk, 1903) among the forms of border thinking – the consciousness of those who live on the colonial border – beside Anzaldúa’s new mestiza consciousness; the interview is checked, the passage in the book not.

Mignolo took up Fanon’s sociogeny – Fanon learns that he is seen as a “Negro” – as an experience of border consciousness absent from Husserl’s theory of consciousness, partly through Wynter’s reading of Fanon.

कृतियाँ
औपनिवेशिकता आधुनिकता के अंधेरे पक्ष के रूप में, और औपनिवेशिक भेद से उत्पन्न ज्ञान के रूप में “सीमांत चिंतन”।
मत
Mignolo argues that modernity and coloniality are two sides of one coin: the European story of progress since 1500 has a darker side of conquest, slavery and the silencing of other forms of knowledge. Building on Quijano’s coloniality of power and Dussel’s critique of Eurocentrism, he speaks of a “colonial difference” that ranks peoples and knowledges. “Border thinking”, a notion inspired by Anzaldúa, is thought produced from that difference by those it marginalises; Guaman Poma is one of his examples. Decoloniality requires “epistemic disobedience” and “delinking” from the Western claim to universal knowledge. The Bolivian sociologist Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui accused him of turning Indigenous thought into academic capital.
