The pluriverse is a concept that challenges the idea of a single, universal world defined by Western modernity, proposing instead a vision of many worlds coexisting in dignity and difference. Rooted in decolonial, Indigenous, and postdevelopment thought, it affirms that no single worldview, ontology, or system of knowledge can claim universality. Rather than a fragmented relativism, the pluriverse emphasizes interconnectedness, reciprocity, and the coexistence of multiple ways of being, knowing, and organizing life. It has become a key concept in political ecology and radical alternatives, encapsulated in the Zapatista expression “a world where many worlds fit”, and serves as a framework for imagining and enacting alternatives to capitalism, colonialism, and extractivist development.
