This book presents itself as a new transformative-emancipatory path:
it attempts to reconcile the sphere of humanity, and particularly that
of dignity, with the dimensions of conscience, vulnerability, and
identity. These dimensions cross several cultural boundaries and
encompass various theoretical hypotheses, in line with certain
critical ontologies. Present society highlights increasing levels of
inequality. Ethics should try to create constructivist bridges, which
the author shows by a meta-ontological model, described in its
«centripetal» inclination. If we do not respect ourselves, others,
and the environment that hosts us, we will never be able to define
ourselves as «human» beings, that is, beings endowed with
«dignity». Any responsibility makes sense to the extent that this
respect – which we could include in the category of «taking care»
– constitutes the epistemological background of ethical lives.
