Despite its popularity this focus on dignity has also attracted a number of vehement critiques, attacking e.g. dignity’s perceived vagueness or its propensity to illiberal abuse. Kant’s notion of dignity in particular is often singled out for criticism. In responding to such charges, recent Kant-scholarship has revealed there is significant disagreement among Kantians about the nature and importance of dignity, CON-TEXTOS KANTIANOS International Journal of Philosophy 258 o N. 10, Diciembre 2019, pp. 255-292 ISSN: 2386-7655 too. Given the pivotal role that Kantian dignity still plays within the larger dignity and human rights debate, this is an issue with far-ranging implications, not just of a philosophical, theoretical nature, but also for moral and political practice. Hence this conference, which brings together various established Kant scholars to discuss and determine the way(s) dignity is best understood within the Kantian approach to moral and political philosophy.

It will be point out that although laboratories of Experimental Psychology were established in the country since 1899, such laboratories were quite different to laboratories in Germany. First, because laboratories were mainly used for educational purposes, not to produce new psychological knowledge. Second, because in Argentina the term “Experimental Psychology” was related with the concept of “Experimental Medicine” introduced by Claude Bernard in France. In such context, Experimental Psychology in Argentina meant Clinical Psychology oriented by the perspective of French psychopathology, especially by the works of Ribot, Grasset and Charcot. Keywords: Psychology, History, Argentina, France. RESUMO Primeiro, este trabalho analisa as condições intelectuais que fizeram possível o surgimento de estudos psicológicos na Argentina em 1900, e da recepção do pensamento francês no pais.

Su obra, Vida y obra de Juan Facundo Quiroga, constituye una pieza clave para develamos: ¿cómo pensaba Sarmiento la identidad de la nación a fundar? y ¿en qué filosofía de la historia se fundaba su proyecto de nacionalidad? Para ver como pensó Sariniento la identidad Argentina será menester detenernos a analizar quiérks son los "otros" en relación con los cuales se iba a levantar la identidad nacional y analizar cuáles son las estructuras profundas que moldean dicha identidad en su aspecto relacional. Nuestra opción metodológica se apoya en una propuesta estructuralista que se niega a analizar la identidad como una totalidad aislada y cerrada. Nos proponemos realizar una operación de destotalización que entendemos indispensable para nuestra cuestión. *Universidad del Norte Santo Tomás de Aquino, Argentina.

His work Life and work of Juan Facundo Quiroga is the key work in which it is revealed to us what did Sarmiento think about the identity of the nation that was in the middle of the process of being founded, and also which philosophy of history was the basis for his project of nationality. In order to find how did Sarmiento think about argentinian identity it is necessary to analyze who are the others in reference to whom that national identity was to be built.

  • Military Aviation and the Eighties Generation Luis Fernando Furlan* Introduction
    Military Aviation and the Eighties Generation LUIS FERNANDO FURLAN* Introduction The men who made up the ruling class in the late nineteenth century, known as the Eighties Generation, wanted to convert the Argentine Republic into a modern nation- state and included its armed forces in their scope. In tune with the repub- lic’s ideology and modernizing vision, various sectors of the republic, part of or linked to that elite, expressed curiosity about and attraction for the military in- novations emerging from the major powers—including those in aviation. This article discusses the enthusiasm and efforts of the Eighties Generation for incorporating aviation into Argentina’s armed forces. These efforts occurred in the context of the presidencies of Dr. Nicolás Avellaneda (1874–80) and Gen Julio A. Roca (1880–86) which, supported by Argentina’s government motto Peace and Administration, constituted one of the most important periods of the Eighties Generation. The Country Model of the Eighties Generation The Eighties Generation was the ruling class serving generally in the leadership and organization of the Argentine Republic from 1874 to 1898. This elite built the modern nation-state state and, according to well-defined criteria, designed and developed a country model that endured for decades. The model was based philosophically on positivism since these leaders sought the country’s progress and modernization and its insertion into European civili- zation; they took Great Britain, France, and Germany as their main references. According to Alejandro Korn, the positivism movement in Argentina was closely linked to the economic development of the country, the predominance of material inter- ests, the spread of public education, the incorporation of heterogeneous masses, and the affirmation of individualistic freedom.

  • Latin American Philosophy: Chapter 1
    Part 1. On the Historiography of Latin American Philosophy 1. Philosophy in Latin America in the Twentieth Century: Problems and Currents ENRIQUE DUSSEL This chapter is organized according to the most significant currents of Latin American philosophy in the twentieth century. I will analyze the central problems and main philosophers of each current, although I will have to leave out many names. At the end of the chapter is a minimal and indicative general bibliogra- phy, arranged by country—even though I did not treat the theme from a national perspective—and philosophical current. The chronology may be useful to readers who are new to the subject. 1. GENERAL PANORAMA1 In Latin America at the beginning of the twentieth century, a positivist phi- losophy (of Comtean inspiration, but subsequently Spencerian or Haeckelian) was dominant, articulated for hegemonic minorities of political society who had es- tablished the liberal state in the second half of the nineteenth century. The anti- positivist reactions (see section 2 of this chapter)—vitalist (inspired by Henry Bergson), anti-rationalist (departing from Schopenhauer or Pascal), historicist (José Ortega y Gasset), and traditional (Third Scholastic with influences from the universities of Louvain and Freiburg)—established Latin American university phi- losophy. These “founders,” in the sense of Francisco Romero,2 in some fashion identified themselves with the nascent national and industrial bourgeoisie (in countries such as Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Peru, and Colombia) or with populist movements (such as the Mexican revolution of 1910 or Cárdenas’s movement from 1934 on, Hipólito Irigoyen’s radical party in Argentina in 1918, Perón’s party from 1946 on, or Getulio Vargas’s nationalism in Brazil from 1930 on).

    Humanism and Deshumanización – Fiction and Philosophy of a Transatlantic Avant-Garde by Robert Snider Wells A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Romance Languages and Literatures: Spanish) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Juli A. Highfill, Co-Chair Professor Gareth Williams, Co-Chair Professor Cristina Moreiras-Menor Associate Professor Santiago Colas “The beautiful stands on quite a different footing […].” Immanuel Kant – Critique of Judgment “In a word, Beauty must be exhibited as a necessary condition of humanity.” Friedrich Schiller – On the Aesthetic Education of Man “Nothing is beautiful, only man: on this piece of naivety rests all aesthetics, it is the first truth of aesthetics. Let us immediately add its second: nothing is ugly but degenerate man – the domain of aesthetic judgment is therewith defined.” Friedrich Nietzsche – Twilight of the Idols “Es un síntoma de pulcritud mental querer que las fronteras entre las cosas estén bien demarcadas.” José Ortega y Gasset – La deshumanización del arte © Robert Snider Wells 2011 Acknowledgements To begin, I would like to acknowledge the co-chairs of my dissertation committee, Juli Highfill and Gareth Williams. Thanks to their insight and encouragement, what was once a rather ambitious and sprawling idea is now a completed, if still somewhat sprawling, dissertation project. Juli, your enthusiasm for the project has never wavered, which, in turn, has always inspired me to keep going. Gareth, your ability to help me get to the pith of whatever it might be that I am trying to say has served to enhance and sharpen my own ability to adequately express the matter at hand.

  • Phil 624: Latin American Philosophy Course Description: What Are The
    Phil 624: Latin American Philosophy Course Description: What are the most important contributions of Hispanic/Latinos to the history of philosophy? The course will read and examine the philosophical writings of some of the most important Hispanic thinkers on the nature of reality, philosophy, values, identity, and other issues that have faced them from the colonial period to the present day. These philosophers constitute a philosophical tradition with its own development. Latin American philosophers have presented and defended philosophically plausible and unique answers to (1) some of the fundamental problems of philosophy, and to (2) philosophical problems that have arisen out of their unique historical circumstances. Philosophers concern with the first type of problem have developed, for example, a metaphysics or a value theory that answers to the debates between realism and idealism and the challenges posed by positivism at the turn of the 20th century. Philosophers concerned with the second type of problems have, for example, developed philosophies that answer to the problems of identity and injustices that have concerned Hispanics since colonial times. The emphasis will be on 20th century thought and philosophical issues but some texts will require that get acquainted with the common historical circumstances that have shaped the experience of Latinos. In other words, we will combine a historical and thematic approach. However, the focus will be of evaluating philosophically the positions considered and determining their contemporary relevance. Required Texts: 1) J. Gracia and E. Millán-Zaibert (eds.) Latin American Philosophy for the 21st Century .Prometheus Books. (identified in outline as ‘GM’) 2) Latin American Philosophy: An Introduction with Readings.
