A reestruturação da eticidade: a atualização do conceito hegeliano de eticidade na teoria do reconhecimento de Axel Honneth

Melo, Filipe Augusto Barreto Campello de January 2008 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2013-08-07T18:55:40Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 000406253-Texto+Completo-0.pdf: 910726 bytes, checksum: 3fe13a64dcbd91721d05feb7942f276d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008 / This dissertation addresses Axel Honneth´s effort to reconceptualize Hegel‟s concept of ethical life (Sittlichkeit) drawing on the notion of communicative spheres of recognition. It focuses on the theoretical underpinnings of Hegel and Honneth‟s contributions with a view to characterize current conceptualizations of ethical life. The argument is developed in three parts. Initially the discussion focuses on the building blocs of Hegel‟s original idea regarding the link between ethical life and recognition. The second part of the dissertation presents a critical review of current critiques of the problems in Hegel‟s approach with the purpose of examining the plausibility of exploring the concept of ethical life on the basis of the Hegelian concept of spirit and the speculative treatment of recognition. The third part of the dissertation examines Honneth‟s reconstruction of Hegel. Firstly, the discuss model‟s concept of ethical life as explicated in The struggle for Recognition (Kampf um Anerkennung). The dissertation claims that by proposing a Moral grammar of social conflicts, Honneth‟s theory provides a consistent connection between Hegel‟s original conceptualization and a more sound basis provided by empirical inflections within the context of the adaptation of Hegel to the exigencies of post-metaphysical thought. The analysis goes on to present the consolidation of Honneth‟s drawing on Hegel‟s Philosophy of Right, with a view to recast conceptually the notion of spheres of ethical life. By engaging in a discussion of Honneth, this analysis aims at revisiting Hegel and pointing to possible new avenues for a richer understanding of his fundamental ideas. / O trabalho tem como objetivo encontrar na teoria de Axel Honneth uma proposta de atualização do conceito hegeliano de eticidade (Sittlichkeit), reestruturado a partir de um modelo assentado em esferas comunicativas de reconhecimento. Situado no quadro teórico que se configura entre Hegel e Honneth, tem-se em vista precisar a caracterização que o conceito hegeliano de eticidade adquire no tratamento contemporâneo. O desenvolvimento da argumentação será desdobrado em três partes. Inicialmente, apresentam-se as linhas gerais que permeiam a idéia original de Hegel do vínculo entre reconhecimento e eticidade. Em seguida, expõe-se a literatura crítica acerca de problemas da abordagem hegeliana, visando expor a plausibilidade da atualização da eticidade a partir da revisão do conceito hegeliano de espírito e do tratamento especulativo do reconhecimento. A terceira parte discute a reatualização de Hegel na teoria de Honneth, na qual é apresentada, num primeiro momento, a exposição do modelo de eticidade proposto por Honneth em Luta por Reconhecimento. Procura-se sustentar que a teoria de Honneth, ao propor uma “gramática moral dos conflitos sociais”, propicia uma consistente articulação entre a intuição original de Hegel de eticidade e o estabelecimento de uma base mais sólida proporcionada pela inflexão empírica, no marco de um projeto de atualização que busca adaptar a proposta de Hegel às exigências do pensamento pós-metafísico. Num segundo momento, é apresentada a proposta honnethiana de atualização da Filosofia do Direito de Hegel, cuja perspectiva é orientada para a remodelação do conteúdo normativo das esferas da eticidade. A partir da discussão da teoria de Honneth, esta análise tem em vista indicar novas possibilidades de retorno a Hegel, relido a partir de novos padrões conceituais.

Partindo do pressuposto de que um diagnóstico de patologias sociais precisa contemplar quatro etapas (sintomatologia, epidemiologia, etiologia e terapia), esta dissertação defende que, embora os aspectos sintomatológicos sejam descritos de modo minucioso na maior parte desses diagnósticos e os epidemiológicos esteja subentendidos, o aspecto etiológico (causal) desses sofrimentos e patologias sociais encontra-se praticamente ausente. Na primeira parte deste trabalho, apresenta-se o diagnóstico honnethiano da autorrealização organizada, que vai além de uma descrição sintomatológica e conta com uma investigação etiológica que bebe de diversos estudos sociológicos. Trata-se de um exemplo de um diagnóstico mais completo de uma patologia social. Na segunda seção, dedicada às patologias analisadas por Axel Honneth segundo a teoria do reconhecimento, vê-se como os diagnósticos da reificação e da invisibilidade padecem de um forte déficit etiológico, pois não se explicam os motivos pelos quais os sujeitos abstraem as qualidades humanas de outros sujeitos ao reificá-los ou invisibilizá-los. O caso de reconhecimento ideológico, também analisado nessa segunda seção, mostra como a teoria do reconhecimento pode ser mais contundente quando aliada uma crítica ideológica e, por isso, este diagnóstico conta com a sua etiologia. Por último, na terceira parte deste trabalho, apresenta-se o diagnóstico da alienação, desenvolvido por Rahel Jaeggi. Mais uma vez, observa-se a ausência de etiologia na análise de casos de alienação, embora este seja um trabalho bastante complexo do ponto de vista de uma descrição sintomatológica. / This dissertation carries out an analysis of some diagnoses of social pathologies developed by two philosophers of contemporary critical theory, Axel Honneth and Rahel Jaeggi, and it consists on the thesis that these diagnoses suffer from an etiological deficit. Starting from the assumption that a diagnosis of social pathologies need to be contemplated in four steps (symptomatology, epidemiology, etiologyand therapy), this dissertation aims at defending that, however the symptomatological aspects are described in a thorough way and the epidemiological are implicit, the etiological aspect is practically absent. At the first part of this work, itis presented the Honnethian diagnosis of organized self-realization, which consists in more than asymptomatological description and contains an etiological investigation that is developed through several sociological studies. It is an example of a more complete diagnosis of asocial pathology. At the second section, dedicated to the pathologies that are interpreted by Axel Honneth according to his theory of recogtion, it is possible to see how the diagnoses of reification and invisibility suffer from a strong etiological deficit, because they do not explain the reasons why the subjects abstract the human qualities of other subjects when they reify ou invisibilize them. The case of ideological recognition, that is also analyzed in the second section, shows how a theory of recognition can be more scathing when it is linked with a critique of ideology and, because of this, this diagnosis counts with its etiology. Last, but not least, itis presented the diagnosis of alienation, developed by Rahel Jaeggi. Once again it is seen an absence of an etiology in the analysis of some cases of alienation, although this work is very complex in the point of view of asymptomatological description.

Reconhecimento como Teoria Critica? : a formulação de Axel Honneth / Recognition as Critical theory? : The formulation of Axel Honneth

Orientador: Josue Pereira da Silva / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Filosofia e Ciencias Humanas / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-13T15:06:47Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Souza_LuizGustavodaCunhade_M.pdf: 1210842 bytes, checksum: c940ab21538d2393bbceaf3f3b1d8b44 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009 / Resumo: O tema da dissertação é a reconstrução da chamada Teoria Crítica da Sociedade por meio da formulação de um modelo de teoria do reconhecimento pelo filósofo e sociólogo alemão Axel Honneth. Para isso, realizou-se a investigação de sua obra a partir da herança daquela tradição desde seu momento inicial, na década de 1930, quando foi fundada por Max Horkheimer e seus colaboradores do Instituto de Pesquisa Social de Frankfurt, passando por suas reformulações e críticas nas décadas subsequentes, das quais as mais destacadas foram as de Jürgen Habermas. Desta forma, foi possível procurar as relações de ruptura e continuidade entre o modelo teórico desenvolvido por Honneth e a tradição teórica à qual ele reivindica filiação. No segundo momento, foi o próprio modelo de Honneth que esteve em pauta, com especial destaque para sua reconstrução da tipologia desenvolvida por Hegel para a idéia de reconhecimento. Este movimento, central para a teoria do reconhecimento, desemboca nas tipologias do reconhecimento (amor, direitos e estima social) e do desrespeito (violência, negação de direitos e desrespeito social), que representam, segundo o autor, relações sociais pautadas por expectativas normativas dos sujeitos envolvidos. Quando estas são descumpridas, é desencadeada uma luta por reconhecimento. Por fim, após a análise da construção do modelo de Honneth, também este foi confrontado com algumas das críticas e objeções que suas idéias levantam, por meio do estudo de seu debate com Nancy Fraser e sua teoria da redistribuição, a fim de abrir perspectivas para uma avaliação mais ampla sobre as possibilidades de reconstrução da Teoria Crítica / Abstract: The theme of this dissertation is the reconstruction of the Critical Theory of Society through the formulation of a model of theory of recognition by the German philosopher and sociologist Axel Honneth. For that, it was made an investigation of his work grounded in the heritage Honneth received from that tradition, as founded in the 1930s by Max Horkheimer and his colleagues of the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt, and also in the revisions and critics to Critical Theory in subsequent decades, mainly those of Jürgen Habermas. Thus, it was possible to find the relations of rupture and continuity between the theoretical model developed by Honneth and the theoretical tradition to which he claims affiliation. Later, the model of Honneth itself was the subject of the investigation, with particular emphasis on its reconstruction of the typology developed by Hegel to the idea of recognition. This movement, central to the theory of recognition, leads to the typologies of recognition (love, rights and solidarity) and disrespect (violence, denial of rights and denigration or insult), which represent, according to the author, social relations guided by normative expectations of the subjects involved. When these are disrespected, comes to field a struggle for recognition. Finally, after examining the construction of Honneth's model, this also was confronted with some of the criticisms and objections that their ideas brought to social debates, through the study of his discussion with Nancy Fraser and her theory of redistribution in order to open a debate about the present forms of reconstructing Critical Theory / Mestrado / Teoria Sociológica / Mestre em Sociologia

Economization of Home Care in Ontario: A Critical Ethnography of Nursing Actions

Al Chami, Mohamad Hamze 15 September 2021 (has links)
Many nursing theorists consider caring the essence of nursing practice. Yet, the meaning of caring is still elusive in nursing theories. This confusion in conceptualizing caring is exacerbated by the neoliberal socio-political and economic transformations of our societies that infuse nursing practice with economic efficiency values ‒ a condition that threatens the ethical dimensions of nursing. This critical study analyzes nursing actions in home care in Ontario and empirically reconstructs the normative dimensions of care based on nurses’ own perceptions of good care. The findings are used to critique current healthcare transformations through a critical theory of nursing actions. This study is situated in the tradition of the Frankfurt critical school and pursues an emancipatory interest. Axel Honneth’s theory of recognition is the principal theoretical foundation complemented by Jürgen Habermas’ theory of communicative action and the interests of knowledge, in addition to the concepts of phenomenology and corporality. It uses critical ethnography as a methodological approach. Data collection included audiotaped semi-structured open-ended interviews with 18 nurses working for two different home care providers in Ottawa. Analysis demonstrates that the patient must be recognized on three dimensions: love, legal rights, and solidarity. Care is a specific form of communicative action in which patients should participate equally in decision making. Nursing actions comprise a hermeneutic-phenomenological dimension of “deep knowing” that respect the corporal and personal needs of the patient. Healthcare transformations and economic efficiency measures reinforce technical and standardized forms of care, which lead to pathologic practices that neglect patients’ corporal needs, thereby reifying patients. Nursing actions combine both technical and corporal aspects that characterize their “double logic.” This study provides elements for a critical theory of nursing actions. Findings highlight that nurses have a vision of how nursing care should look like, but the reality of home care makes it rather impossible to realize this vision. Economization leads to a systematic violation of multiple dimensions of recognition and to reification. Nurses must resist these social pathologies and this study provides some theoretical tools to engage in this struggle.

Den svenska stumfilmens scenografi : Exemplen Vingarne och Dunungen

Thulin, Laura January 2022 (has links)
Institutionen för kultur och estetik, Konstvetenskap 106 91 Stockholms universitet 08-16 20 00 vx Handledare: Magdalena Holdar Titel och undertitel: Den svenska stumfilmens scenografi–exemplen Dunungen och Vingarne Författare: Laura Thulin Kontaktuppgifter till författaren: laura.thulin@gmail.com Uppsatsnivå: Kandidatnivå Ventileringstermin: Vt 2022 ABSTRACT: Denna uppsats avhandlar den svenska stumfilmens scenografi och studerar scenografin ifilmerna Vingarne (Mauritz Stiller, 1916) och Dunungen (Ivan Hedqvist, 1919). Syftet är att undersöka hur och vad scenografin berättar. Detta utförs utifrån narratologiska teorier och med metoder hämtade från konstvetenskapen, formal- och kontextanalys. Överlag kan man konstatera att naturens scenografi i båda filmer dels är mindre teatralisk och mer dynamisk än interiörerna, men också bidrar mer till filmernas narrativ, påverkar fabulan, förmedlar karaktärsdrag och understryker händelseförlopp. Naturen skildras i båda filmer med en betoning på dess skönhet och som en plats för njutning och rekreation. I Vingarne håller sig scenografin mycket i bakgrunden, det är framförallt en transparent realism, men med talande undantag som berättar mycket om huvudpersonernas karaktärer och styrker filmens tema om moral och omoral. I Dunungen driver scenografin på flera punkter framnarrativet, i synnerhet skildringen av gården Bohult. Filmens scenografiska helhet harmonierar med huvudrollen Anne-Marie och kan även sägas driva fram vad som kallats den svenska stumfilmens nationella prägel. I båda filmer finns exempel på rekvisita, som i samklang med karaktärerna, i mycket hög utsträckning driver narrativet. Ett förhållningssätttill de litterära förlagorna, att man använt sig av passager därifrån på ett sätt som kan liknasvid direkta scenografianvisningar, utmärker sig.

Bidrar HPA-axeldysfunktion till ökad demensrisk? : En litteraturstudie / Is HPA axis dysfunction a contributing factor to increased dementia risk?

Laurin, Titti January 2022 (has links)
Bakgrund: Demens drabbar en stor del av den äldre befolkningen och antalet insjuknade väntas stadigt stiga. Det finns i dagsläget ingen sjukdomsbotande behandling och etiologin är oklar. Hypotalamus-hypofys-binjurebark (HPA)-axeln är ett neuroendokrint system som aktiveras vid exponering för endo- respektive exogena stressorer. Aktivering leder till frisättning av glukokortikoider från binjurebarken. Cirkulerande glukokortikoider (kortisol) påverkar kognitiva funktioner och verkar ha effekt på plasticiteten vid hippocampus, som är en region viktig för minnesfunktioner. Förhöjda kortisolhalter har korrelerats med snabbare kognitiv nedgång och pågående Alzheimers sjukdom. HPA-axeldysfunktion och förhöjda kortisolhalter har föreslagits vara en möjlig bidragande orsak till kognitiv funktionsnedsättning och demens. Syfte: Undersöka om HPA-axeldysfunktion med förhöjda kortisolhalter bidrar till demensutveckling. Metod: Systematisk litteratursökning med på förhand implementerade inklusions- respektive exklusionskriterier. Sökningar utfördes på databaserna Pubmed och Web of Science med sökorden ”dementia”, ”Alzheimer’s”, ”longitudinal”, ”cortisol”. Resultat: Av sex granskade artiklar kunde fem korrelera förhöjda kortisolhalter med senare nedsatt kognitiv förmåga eller demens. Resultaten varierade beroende på vilka effektvariabler som användes i samband med analys. Slutsats: Inkluderade studier uppvisade viss ökad förekomst av HPA-axeldysfunktion och förhöjda kortisolhalter i samband med senare demens eller kognitiv funktionsnedsättning. Det går dock inte att utesluta att förhöjda kortisolhalter orsakas av patofysiologiska förändringar i samband med det begynnande sjukdomsförloppet. / Background: Dementia affects a large part of the elderly population, and the incidence is expected to keep rising. However, there is no available disease-curing treatment nor is the etiology yet fully understood. The hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is a neuroendocrine system that is activated under exposure to endo- and/or exogenous stressors. Activation leads to the release of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortex. Circulating glucocorticoids (cortisol) affects cognitive functions including hippocampal plasticity. Elevated cortisol levels have been associated with ongoing Alzheimer’s disease and a more rapid cognitive decline. Thus, HPA axis dysfunction with elevated cortisol levels have been suggested as a possible contributor to cognitive impairment and dementia. Objective: To investigate if HPA axis dysfunction and elevated cortisol levels are a contributing cause of dementia. Method: Systematic literature search with pre-implemented inclusion and exclusion criteria. Searches were carried out on Pubmed and Web of Science using the words "dementia", "Alzheimer's", "longitudinal", "cortisol". Results: Associations between elevated cortisol levels and later cognitive decline or dementia was made in five out of six reviewed studies. The results varied depending on the effect variables used in connection with the analysis. Conclusion: Reviewed studies showed some degree of associations between high cortisol levels and later cognitive decline or dementia. It is however impossible to rule out the possibility of elevated cortisol levels as part of the initial disease progression, rather than a cause of disease.

Reconocimiento e ideología en Axel Honneth

Nación Pantigoso, Miguel Ángel 05 November 2020 (has links)
En la filosofía social contemporánea el concepto de reconocimiento está en discusión. Por un lado, algunos filósofos, entre los que destacan Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault y Judith Butler, sostienen que el reconocimiento significa la adhesión subjetiva al poder expresada en la respuesta al llamado de la ley. En esta respuesta la subjetividad se reconoce en la ley, adquiriendo una identidad práctica. Por esto, para estos filósofos el reconocimiento es la forma por la cual el sujeto queda sujetado a la ley. Por otro lado, Axel Honneth sostiene que el reconocimiento es el movimiento dialéctico en el que la subjetividad busca afirmarse en el otro para ampliar el horizonte valorativo de la sociedad. La estructura normativa que puede satisfacer el deseo de afirmación subjetiva es la autorrestricción del egocentrismo por respeto al otro. De este modo es posible estar con consigo mismo en el otro. A esta estructura normativa Honneth la llama Eticidad. En consecuencia, el reconocimiento expresa el sentido normativo de la subjetividad que busca realizarse. Entonces, ¿cómo diferenciar el sentido normativo del reconocimiento de la sujeción ideológica? Para esto, siguiendo a Honneth, sostenemos que la ideología, a diferencia del reconocimiento, es una promesa normativa meramente simbólica debida a la reificación de las relaciones de interdependencia que genera sufrimientos sociales en los sujetos. Nuestra tesis se sostiene en la crítica y recuperación de la agencia que hace Honneth respecto de la tendencia funcionalista prevaleciente en la Teoría Crítica que va de Karl Marx a Jürgen Habermas.

Multicuralisme et justice sociale : les enjeux politiques de la reconnaissance chez Charles Taylor et Axel Honneth / Multiculturalism and social justice : the political stakes of recognition in Charles Taylor's and Axel Honneth's theories

Nibaruta, Gaudence 07 December 2016 (has links)
Sous l’effet de la mondialisation qui a accéléré le rapprochement des cultures, la notion d’identité a pris de l’importance dans la conscience contemporaine. L’émergence du multiculturalisme et de l’idéal de la reconnaissance est liée à ce phénomène. Elle est fondée sur un rejet de l’identité essentielle jugée comme fictive et assimilationniste, au profit d’une valorisation de l’identité sociale réelle. Cette investigation porte sur les enjeux de l’identité, à savoir, sa formation, les conditions de possibilité de son épanouissement, sa reconnaissance dans l’espace public, et surtout son intégration dans la gestion des affaires de l’État. Ces enjeux soulèvent les passions, jusqu’à constituer dans certains cas des menaces pour la cohésion sociale et l’unité de l’État. À travers une analyse conceptuelle et une discussion des problèmes moraux et politiques touchant l’actualité des sociétés contemporaines, Taylor démontre que l’harmonie sociale et l’épanouissement individuel et collectif passent nécessairement par une gestion harmonieuse de l’identité et de la différence. Quant à Honneth, il développe une théorie de l’intersubjectivité, en soulignant que l’identité des individus ne peut se former et s’épanouir que dans des rapports de reconnaissance. Les deux penseurs se rejoignent sur l’idée qu’au fond de l’exigence de la reconnaissance se trouve l’idéal de justice sociale et d’équité. Au-delà de l’estime mutuelle, le partage équitable des richesses (matérielles ou symboliques), les compromis, les accords ou accommodements raisonnables, deviennent le pilier d’un vivre-ensemble harmonieux. / Under the influence of globalization, which has brought different cultures closer, the notion of identity has taken center stage in contemporary consciousness. The emergence of multiculturalism and the recognition of the ideal are connected to this phenomenon. They are based on the rejection of the essential identity, which is judged as fictitious, for the benefit of a real social one. This research accounts for the stakes in identity: its formation, the conditions of possibility of its self-fulfillment, its recognition in the public area, and especially its integration in the management of the affairs of the state. Such requirements sometimes raise passions and may be considered as threats to social cohesion and the compactness of the state. Through an abstract quest and a discussion of the moral and political problems affecting contemporary societies, Taylor demonstrates that social harmony and individual and collective self-fulfillment is inevitably interwoven with a harmonious management of identity and some difference. As for Honneth, he develops an idea based on intersubjectivation, and underscores the fact that the identity of the individual can formed and allow to blossom in the presence of requirements for the recognition of the ideals of social justice and equity. Beyond mutual respect, the equal distribution of wealth (material or symbolic), compromises, agreements or reasonable settlements, are the pillars of harmonious societies.
