If the universalization of human rights represents for some a glorious victory of the legal culture of the last century, for others, however, it mirrors failure and is linked to the last breaths of a type of legal rationality that had sought, albeit in a well-intentioned way, maximum expansion of the scope of these rights by the related search for ultimate and definitive foundations. The hypothesis that was raised here is that without realizing and allowing itself to be guided by supposedly universal and therefore arethorical moral criteria, it discredited intercultural dialogue and despised what is unique and endemic in minority cultures, legitimizing exclusion or subordinate inclusion. Cannibalizing, Thus, through rhetoric with apoditic pretensions (arhetorical rhetoric), the other countless grammars of dignity that still prevail in the plural world we inhabit. The objective here is, therefore, to denounce, using the method of rhetorical analysis, this process of cannibalization, subsumption and contempt for the understanding of a world that is extraneous to that kind of worldview that underlies the universal theories of human rights.
