Abstract

This article aims to analyze the constitution of a subject of right capable of respect and esteem through the concept of capacity elaborated by Paul Ricœur. It intends to evaluate the capable, emancipated human being, the self that has an ethical and moral dimension and that is susceptible of ethical and juridical imputation, as it is explained in “Who is the Subject of Rights?” in The Just.

Author Biography

Sergio Salles, Catholic University of Petropolis

I am adjunct Professor of Philosophy in the Department of Philosophy and actualy the assistant coordinator of the Master's Degree in Process, Justice and Human Rights in the Center for Legal Studies at the Catholic University of Petropolis.

My work has come in recent years to fall under two main headings. First, I work on issues arising out of Thomas Aquinas's metaphysics and ethics and Paul Ricoeur's phenomenological hermeneutic and ethics. Second, I work on philosophical issues raised by the implications of metaphysics and hermeneutics in the theory of law and human rights.
