In opposition to an abstract universalism, anthropologist Barbara Glowczewski speaks of the “pluriverse”. The term first appeared in 1909, used by the author William James to discredit the idea of a single global reality. Latin American decolonial researchers have used the term to introduce an alternative to a Eurocentric, conquering, capitalist worldview. Thus, the Zapatistas, a revolutionary movement in Mexico, honour “a world made of a multitude of worlds”.
