Abstract

This article proposes The Paraconsistent as a philosophical-political category to name the subject who exists constitutively in ontological contradiction — not due to epistemic deficiency but by structural condition — and who from that position produces thought, knowledge and action without collapsing into either of its poles. Drawing on a critical revision of two dominant traditions for handling contradiction — presented here as interpretive models called the First Logos and the Second Logos — the article proposes the Third Logos as a form of rationality especially adequate for contexts where contradiction is structural, persistent and irreducible. Logical colonialism — the imposition of coherence and non-contradiction criteria as conditions for recognizing knowledge, identity or decisions as valid — is identified as the object of liberation this philosophy proposes. The praxis operates in three simultaneous registers: pedagogical, technical and epistemic.
