description The aim of this paper is to point to the possible approximations between the concept of Ethics by the Brazilian philosopher Álvaro Vieira Pinto and by the Argentinean Enrique Dussel. We discussed the reflections on Ethics provided by Álvaro Vieira Pinto in the books “Consciência e Realidade Nacional” and “Ciência e Existência” and glimpsed a complementarity between the two philosophers. The humanization of life conditions to the masses of underdeveloped countries is a confluent aspect in both philosophers’ reflections. We conclude highlighting the relevance of Álvaro Vieira Pinto’s thinking to the decolonial studies and the decolonization of Ethics.
