Cosa c'è che non va nell'antropologia filosofica?

2025 - Franco Angeli

53-62 p.

This paper explores philosophical anthropology's tendency to assert human primacy over the natural world, tracing its roots to Husserl's phenomenology. It critiques the anthropocentric views of thinkers like Arnold Gehlen, who emphasize human uniqueness through concepts like 'Entlastung' (exoneration from instinct). The discussion extends to the continuity and discontinuity between human and non-human nature, highlighting the role of language and communication. The implications of these views on political and social structures are also examined, in particular about questioning the universal applicability of human-centric ideologies. A more relativistic and culturally diverse understanding of human nature is advocated, possibly challenging the traditional anthropological perspectives. Lastly, the proposal to consider the 'anthropological philosophy', that is the majority of modern philo-sophical tradition, as exceptionable because of its transcendental conception linked to a glo-rification of human species
