This critique addresses the limitations of North American and European philosophies in their discussions of postmetaphysical thought and modernity. Dussel argues that these philosophies often overlook the historical roots of the "myth" of modernity and fail to critically examine their Eurocentric biases. He highlights a problematic "developmental fallacy," where a linear progression from premodern to modern is assumed, thereby neglecting the complexities of historical development and the contributions of non-Western perspectives.
