The ethics of life beyond bio-centered humanism of Hans Jonas

I will argue, first, that both the charges of anthropocentrism and anti-humanism made against the philosophy of Hans Jonas have no legitimacy. They represent an abstract vision of human existence. Therefore, I will indicate, in a second moment, that Hans Jonas founds his ethics on a biocentric ontol...

They represent an abstract vision of human existence. Therefore, I will indicate, in a second moment, that Hans Jonas founds his ethics on a biocentric ontology of life in order to highlight the superior value of humanity and to show that this value is compatible with a discourse of respect for life and nature. However, I will emphasize, thirdly, the real difficulties that Jonas encounters. Indeed, in the first place, he does not think about the relationship between living beings and, therefore, he fails to develop an environmental ethic. Second, he does not fully articulate his formal ethics with his medical ethics. That is the reason why I wish to indicate how it is possible to overcome these limits in order to open the way to an ethics of life that is truly compatible with humanism.Sostendré, en primer lugar, que tanto la acusación de antropocentrismo como la de anti humanismo formuladas contra la filosofía de Hans Jonas, y que se oponen entre sí, no tienen legitimidad. Ellas suponen una visión abstracta de la existencia humana. Indicaré, por tanto, en un segundo momento, que Jonas funda su ética sobre una ontología de la vida biocentrada, con el fin de destacar el valor superior de la humanidad y de señalar que este valor es compatible con un discurso de respeto a la vida y a la naturaleza. No obstante, pondré el énfasis, en tercer lugar, sobre las verdaderas dificultades que Jonas encuentra en su filosofía. Efectivamente, en primer lugar, no piensa la relación entre los seres vivos y, por tanto, no logra desarrollar una ética ambiental. En segunda instancia, no articula plenamente su ética formal con su ética médica. Esa es la razón por la cual deseo indicar cómo es posible superar estos límites con el fin de abrir la vía a una ética de la vida realmente compatible con el humanismo.application/pdftext/htmlspaspaUniversidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Colombiahttps://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/cuestiones_filosofia/article/view/11868/9976https://revistas.uptc.edu.co/index.php/cuestiones_filosofia/article/view/11868/13374Derechos de autor 2020 Eric Pommierhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Cuestiones de Filosofía; Vol. 6 No. 27 (2020): Cuestiones de Filosofía; 35-53Cuestiones de Filosofía; Vol. 6 Núm. 27 (2020): Cuestiones de Filosofía; 35-532389-94410123-5095ethicsCallicotthumanismJonaslifeéticaCallicotthumanismoJonasvidaThe ethics of life beyond bio-centered humanism of Hans JonasLa ética de la vida más allá del humanismo biocentrado de Hans Jonasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1Pommier, Eric001/11285oai:repositorio.uptc.edu.co:001/112852025-07-18 11:07:00.512metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uptc.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UPTCrepositorio.uptc@uptc.edu.co
