from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

César Germaná Cavero (* 20th century ) is a Peruvian sociologist and emeritus professor of social sciences .

Professional background

César Germaná initially obtained a master's degree in sociology at the Universidad de Santiago de Chile . He later obtained his doctorate with his dissertation Socialismo y democracia en el pensamiento de José Carlos Mariategui , which he submitted in 1992 (published in 1995 by the Comisión Nacional del Centenario de José Carlos Mariátegui ) and received a Ph.D. in Ibero-American Studies from the University of Stendhal Grenoble III in France. Until his retirement in 2017, he taught as a professor at the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM) in Lima .

As part of his scientific work, he was a participant in congresses of the Asociación Latinoamericana de Sociología (ALAS). In his work, César Germaná takes up the perception that at the beginning of the 21st century in Latin America and in large parts of the world there was a revival of critical thinking , in the course of which a focus on ethical and political perspectives took place. Essentially, his work deals with critical analyzes of the workings of Eurocentric influences in Latin American societies, which also refer to work on postcolonialism and from the field of subaltern studies . Germaná agrees with the Peruvian sociologist Quijano , who recognized two corresponding factors in modernity and colonialism in the current international power pattern ( Spanish : patrón de poder ).
