Abstract
The article presents epistemology, political and ethical standpoints, social-philosophic grounds of the decolonial turn - one of the contemporary alter-modern international projects. It briefly traces the genealogy of the «decolonial option», conceptualizes its latest tendencies and interconnections with other intellectual and social-political models, and considers its future prospects. Particular attention is paid to rethinking of humanities within the decolonial turn.
