Resumo(s)
Although Ricoeur never wrote any specific book thematically grounding a project
worthy of being called a “social philosophy”, we can still find sparse
elements of such a project in his writings. Consequently, it is not
impossible to hermeneutically reconstruct those elements in order
to put forward something akin to a “Ricoeurian social philosophy”.
That philosophy will have the intersubjective constitution of human
beings – simultaneously passive and active, being affected
by alterity and dependent on patterns of recognition in order to
be successfully constituted in a healthy manner – as its starting
point, while its goal will be the constitution of just social institutions
allowing for a better realization of the principle of freedom.
Bearing that utopian and yet mobilizing ideal in mind, this philosophy
will also serve as the yardstick with which we can detect pathological
phenomena – the so‑called
social pathologies famously depicted
by Critical Theorists – of social reality, and therefore criticize them.
This paper partially reconstructs this “Ricoeurian social philosophy”
and presents some of the social phenomena that it enables us to assess
and criticize: the critique of ideologies by utopias, the critique of
unjust institutions or the analysis of the phenomena of social crises.
