Among the thinkers that have played a role in the elaboration of the Epistemologies of the South, and specifically with regards to intercultural translations, stands a Spanish-Indian Philosopher and Theologian, Raimon Panikkar. Alice News would like to pay him a tribute during the month in which we celebrate the 100 years since his birth (2 November 1918). Panikkar passed away in August 2010 and left a very prolific work behind with teaching for a plural world that will be central for the thinking to come. This short video condenses his very intercultural and inter-religious spirit.
