Reflection on the Philosophical Foundations for the Construction of a Libertarian Hermeneutics

Abstract

The discernment of the valuations of freedom as a human cause supposes a genealogical journey that allows locating the epistemological pillars, from whom the discourses that make freedom a class in permanent semantic dynamism are built. For this course of dissertations, a hermeneutic is directed that crosses the spirit of the time from the 18th century to the present moment and its implications in the cognitive and attitudinal development of the subjects in this experience. In this perspective, questioning the value semantics of the concept of freedom is associated with an enunciating analysis that responds to the premises of the historical moment and to the ideological imprints with which freedom begins to be manipulated to delineate an image of the anthropological project of society. In this problematization, the plasticity of the signifier and the signified; the vaporous character of the thing and its meaning gives rise to an ethical approach to freedom in return to ethos as a vital expression that unmasks the claims of control exposed in the senses of freedom positioned by the dominant logic of power-knowledge. Thus, from the philosophicaland hegemonic tensions, the reflection that arises risks conceiving freedom as a universal that crosses the meaning and experience of human existence without the political and economic determinations that alter it.
