Abstract
En este artículo se aborda la que Hunyadi ha definido como la gran paradoja ética de nuestro tiempo. A la que quizá sea la mayor presencia social de la ética en toda la historia parece corresponderle una incapacidad casi total para evaluar y modificar los modos de vida en el interior de nuestras sociedades. Para dar cuenta de este impasse se abordan dos fuentes del mismo. En primer lugar, la matriz liberal de una ética que se establece como ética restringida "en tanto que individual, de principios y fragmentada". Por otro, la presencia dominante de dinámicas sociales impersonales que dificultan la actuación individual para revertir la situación de automatismo en la producción y el mantenimiento de los modos de vida. El artículo finaliza señalando algunas posibles salidas a esta paradoja.
This article will address what Hunyadi has defined as the greatest ethical paradox of our time. In a moment where ethics is more socially present than ever, we present an almost total inability to evaluate and modify the ways of life within our societies. To account for this impasse, two sources will be addressed. First, the liberal matrix of an ethic that establishes itself as restricted ethics- as individual, principled and fragmented. On the other, the dominant presence of impersonal social dynamics that hinder individual action to reverse the situation of automatism in the production and maintenance of ways of life. The article ends by pointing out some possible outputs to this paradox.
