Resumen
RIOS ESPINOSA, María Cristina. American influence: Utopias Europe and America. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2017, vol.19, n.2, pp.87-100. ISSN 1851-9490.
This work intends to demonstrate the existent bonds between the European and American utopias in two senses. The first one seeks to invert the hypothesis regarding how the utopias in America became the praxis of the utopias conceived in Europe as reforms of the political and social corruption, assisting this way as the principle to the fictional construction of the ideas of social justice. The second sense will demonstrate the concealment of the "locus of enunciation" hidden in the Utopia of Thomas More, i.e. the Caribbean islands described by Bartolomé de Las Casas in his Memorial de remedios, which are bestowed as product of the imagination, stemming from a "no-place" or "good-place" according to the specialists of the works of More.
