Abstract
En la teoría política contemporánea estamos asistiendo a un auge del pensamiento
republicano, que se presenta como alternativa a un liberalismo que parece
agotado. El centro de la discusión lo constituye el debate sobre los conceptos de libertad:
el negativo, adscrito al liberalismo, y la “no-dominación”, invocada por los neorepublicanos.
En el presente trabajo se analizan las consecuencias políticas de abordar
el tema de la libertad únicamente a través de la contraposición de distintas definiciones
que se presentan como incompatibles entre sí.
In contemporary political theory we are witnessing an increase of adherents of republicanism, understood as an alternative discourse to a supposedly exhausted liberalism. The debate on the concepts of liberty occupies the centre of the discussion. The defence of the negative concept of liberty attributed to the liberal tradition is contested using an alternative definition of liberty as non-domination. The present article analyzes the political consequences of approaching the subject of liberty under such presuppositions, limited to the emphasis on the clash of contrasting definitions of the concept.
