The present Master in Law dissertation proposes the observation that the colonization practiced not only in Brazilian territory, but also throughout Latin America, was characterized by the lack of recognition of the original peoples as subjects of full rights. This is because the colonizing method on the Latin American continent imported into the local environment a system based on bureaucracy and formalism for the benefit of the dominant groups, which resulted in a hegemonic constitutionalism in the region. In this sense, the political emancipation of the Latin American Colonies from the Metropolis was not about eradicating the existing ethnic and cultural subjugation. That said, the new Latin American States were ordered under the aegis of liberal Constitutions, but with neocolonial strokes of indigenous and/or afrodescendant subordination. In other words, as the colonizer inserted his way of life and his values in favor of the privileged social classes, whose ethnicities were seen as superior, the new States emerged from the white elites and not from the demands of the minorities, leaving ballasts, exclusionary barriers, and discriminatory legacies until the contemporary days. This leads to the reflection that the centrality characteristic of the legal monism of Modernity overturns the ethnic/plural cultural theme by a centralized question, contrary to the original Latin American normative pluralisms, in which the conception of legal security would be based not on legality, but on a customary interpretative system. The research method used in this Master dissertation was a qualitative bibliographic review of pertinent academic/scientific literature
