Century, simultaneously the issue it sought to represent, until postmodernity, the Enlightenment comprised differents positions, even antagonistic, that we consider the diferente epistemological, ideological, geographic and chronological aspects that emerged under its denomination. Thus, Enlightenment and anti-Enlightenment positions correspond to the deepest and most comprehensive structure of western thought in the last 250 years, smoothing theoretical positions, methodologies and the doxa itself.
