Keywords: oppressed, history, hope, Benjamin, Kafka, liberation theology

Abstract

We study different authors who have pointed out, from Walter Benjamin, the hope as it arises, paradoxically, in despair. First, we show this dialectic in Kafka, to study after the approach of Paulo Freire and liberation theology. From the oppressed, as they indicate, from their limit situation, the utopian nerve can arise that might humanize the world.
