Abstract
It is a study about the resizing in the modern historicity that bases the theme of human rights, problematizing them from the perspective of the American decolonial turn. Therefore, it is sought to reflect on the dimensional historicism of the subject, considering the colonial difference and, specifically, questioning the perspective of the so-called Human Rights dimensions as doctrinal constructions that represent a historical cover-up and an invisibility of humanist struggles and conceptions in Latin America. Thus, the research explored bibliographically the form of socio-historical manifestation of colonial structures in modernity from the dimensional cut proposed by human rights doctrines, highlighting the construction of global hegemonic power and the masking of experiences in the realities classified as peripheral.
