Abstract
José Ortega y Gasset es uno de los pensadores más brillantes del
s. XX español. Su obra, sin embargo, tan alabada en campos como la antropología o la epistemología, ha sido criticada y denostada en el ámbito político
por su defensa de la teoría de la élite, hasta el punto de que hay quien lo ha
visto como un precursor del fascismo. El objetivo de estas páginas es, por el
contrario, mostrar cómo, en contra de lo tradicionalmente sostenido, Ortega es
un partidario acérrimo del sistema democrático, a cuya defensa consagró su
vida y no solo su obra
