(question associated with the suspicion of those who are in stage 5 or 6 of Kohlberg are almost-compliant).La cuidadosa polémica abierta por la doctora Villegas invita a examinar críticamente los resultados de nuestro trabajo Indicadores de convivencia ciudadana. Desde su título plantea una pregunta crucial: ¿sujeción de la moral a la ley?En síntesis, la autora del comentario cuestiona nuestra definición de moral y sus consecuencias, y nos acusa de dos cosas: asumir una posición a favor del relativismo moral y promover un conformismo excesivo con la ley.Para examinar y confrontar sus puntos de vista, se considerarán en este artículo: 1) nuestra caracterización de lo moral en términos de autorregulación, 2) la diferencia entre pluralismo y relativismo, 3) la jerarquía entre ley y moral, 4) el rol de la reflexión moral y la necesidad de volcar hacia las prácticas democráticas (e incluso reconocer como su principal insumo) las tensiones entre ley y moral. Además (parte ii), atenderemos la invitación a explorar una pregunta “prescriptiva” relevante: ¿será mejor ser cuasi cumplidos que cumplidos? (pregunta asociada a su sospecha de que quienes están en las etapas 5 o 6 de Kohlberg son cuasi cumplidos).application/pdfspaIEPRI, Universidad Nacional de Colombiahttp://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/anpol/article/view/46638Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Análisis PolíticoAnálisis PolíticoAnálisis Político; Vol. 18, núm. 54 (2005); 3-17 0121-4705Mockus, Antanas and Corzo, Jimmy (2005) Law or morality: which is more important?
