Il diritto tra tradizione e contingenzaPhilosophical News 5. 2012.In clear opposition to values stemmed from tradition or natural law, modern time enhances and cares for the contingent nature of law to the point to embrace any social practise. In this context, contingency refers to the lack of any binding principle which implies that legal norms’ change depends only upon limitless and free social mutations. Leaving apart the value of tradition and denying the possibility to found law on the base of natural law, it turns out that the quality of law is not suppo…Read more

43Symbolism and literalism in anthropologySynthese 52 (2). 1982.We have considered two strategies for using native utterances as evidence for assigning native beliefs. We have shown that each of these two strategies (literalism and symbolism) can avoid the logical difficulties mentioned in section 1 — so long, at least, as we employ an account of the logical form of belief sentences developed by Burdick. We have also considered the methodological principles which provide the basis for translational practice. Based on our consideration of these principles, we…Read more

67The philosophy of sociality: The shared point of view * by Raimo TuomelaAnalysis 69 (3): 587-589. 2009.This work provides a rigorous analysis of what Tuomela calls ‘the we-perspective’. Tuomela's overarching project is to argue that ‘conceptualizing social life and theorizing about it requires the use of group concepts, indeed the we-perspective and, especially, the we-mode.’ Already some of the complexities of Tuomela's approach will be evident – viz. in the distinction, implied in the above quotation and carried through systematically throughout the work, between the ‘we-perspective’ and the ‘w…Read more

Biopolítica: Fundamentos filosófico-jurídicosMedicina y Ética 21 35-44. 2010.La reflexión de Francesco D'Agostino procede a partir de una sintética presentación de la genealogía y de los sucesivos desarrollos del concepto de "persona" en la cultura occidental, deteniéndose específicamente sobre su reciente identificación positivistá con la categoría de "sujeto de derecho" - y sobre su consiguiente manipulabilidad pragmática y normativa. Tal paradigma ha entrado en crisis, como testimonian las irresolubles problemáticas surgidas en torno a la disciplina legal del bias, y …Read more
