Pandemia e capitalismo del XXI secolo. Gestione securitaria della crisi tra individualizzazione neoliberista e ristrutturazione delle forze produttive
2020
Il contributo propone una riflessione sul Sars-Cov-2 quale epifenomeno del modo di produzione capitalistico ed in particolare della sua fase neoliberista. La pandemia, accelerando dinamiche e contraddizioni del capitale già preesistenti, è indubbiamente correlata agli aspetti più predatori del modo di produzione capitalistico, particolarmente nei confronti della natura e della biodiversità. Il saggio cerca anche di far riflettere su altri due aspetti emersi durante la pandemia: la gestione della pandemia, non solo in termini sanitari, è profondamente legata ai processi di individualizzazione, visti quali esiti delle trasformazioni sociali indotte dal neoliberismo; inoltre, il modo in cui si…
"L'Espagne c'est encore l'orient?" Pasado oriental y moral cristiana en Martínez de la Rosa
2013
A principios del siglo XIX, tanto absolutistas como liberales coincidían en situar los orígenes de España en la unión entre los primitivos hispanos y los visigodos, fundamentalmente a través de la conversión al cristianismo de los segundos. En las décadas siguientes, escritores, poetas, novelistas o historiadores románticos articularon desde una esfera pública cada vez más densa una narrativa de la nación liberal en la que la Edad Media ocupaba un papel destacado. Ahora bien, en un periodo tan esencial para la historia nacional como aquél, los autores españoles debían admitir que hispanorromanos y visigodos no eran sus únicos protagonistas, como advirtieron también los escritores foráneos. …

Producción de personas, reproducción de representaciones. Reflexiones sobre dos programas de capacitación en liderazgo
2020
The present paper addresses the question of the role Executive Education performs in the strengthening and reproduction of neoliberal ideology. It aims to critically reflect on the way selected contents and teaching activities operate jointly enabling or inhibiting certain perspectives regarding work in organizations. Two Leadership training programs are analyzed in this article, currently delivered by the two most prestigious business schools in Argentina: IAE Business School, and Torcuato Di Tella Business School. I begin with a general description of each one and proceed analyzing their educational proposals. Finally, the critical review reveals their consistency with a set of social rep…
Sobre la interiorización del espacio social
2009
The author explores the relationships between the exterior world and the inner world in the diverse types of messages and reproducing products of the mass media, analyzing the cultural roots, the ideological, political, and social features that these relationships show. The different reproducing cultural forms create passages and virtual spaces which mediates the space to link it with the inner life. Above all, the author finds that the meditating and informative processing of the public space has a direct link with the modern capitalism in its expansive and privatizing tendency, and it is essential to study today into depth the processes which connect the expansion pf cultural and informat…

Ethical Assumptions: A Criticism against Modern Pragmatism
2016
The advent of neoliberalism in the early 1970s marked a new age for ethical practices. Although pragmatism as an approach to ethics pre-dated neoliberalism, the neoliberal approach to political economy ushered in a new kind of pragmatism, owing little to Jeremy Bentham, even less to the American philosophical pragmatists Charles S. Peirce, William James, and John Dewey. Today’s pragmatism has permeated the penal systems of the central countries of the world capitalist system. A new ethics emerged, a neopragmatism. Acts came to be judged by their effects and not by the motives that led to the actions. This altered the doctrine of Abrahamic religions, and led to the disappearance of forgivene…

Smithian Sentimentalism Anticipated: Pufendorf on the Desire for Esteem and Moral Conduct
2018
In this paper, we argue that Samuel Pufendorf's works on natural law contain a sentimentalist theory of morality that is Smithian in its moral psychology. Pufendorf's account of how ordinary people make moral judgements and come to act sociably is surprisingly similar to Smith's. Both thinkers maintain that the human desire for esteem, manifested by resentment and gratitude, informs people of the content of central moral norms and can motivate them to act accordingly. Finally, we suggest that given Pufendorf's theory of socially imposed moral entities, he has all the resources for a sentimentalist theory of morality.
Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Elements in Hume
2016
For the last forty years, Hume's Newtonianism has been a debated topic in Hume scholarship. The crux of the matter can be formulated by the following question: Is Hume a Newtonian philosopher? Debates concerning this question have produced two lines of interpretation. I shall call them ‘traditional’ and ‘critical’ interpretations. The traditional interpretation asserts that there are many Newtonian elements in Hume, whereas the critical interpretation seriously questions this.In this article, I consider the main points made by both lines of interpretations and offer further arguments that contribute to this debate. I shall first argue, in favor of the traditional interpretation, that Hume i…
