ETHOS

Abstract

Today's society is experiencing a crisis of ethical and ecological values that demands a better relationship with the species and the ecosystem, the eco-world, the eco-cosmos and there are several narratives around the imbalance that compromises the man with the arts, the philosophies , las literatures, las historias, la religiones, la educación y la vida, la muerte, among so many other fields of action that require thinking about life as Adela Cortina (2000) does from a practical rationality, rather than from an instrumental rationality. Ethics is a dynamic of social interaction that involves putting in place a set of ethical values and criteria. el semillero understands ethics as the cultivation of an ethos, the way of being that seeks harmony between the values that define the bien own (happiness, dignity, freedom, authenticity, etc.) and the bien común (justice, solidarity, equity, legitimacy, etc.). In this sense, for the semillero, ethics will be approached from the practical knowledge whose commitment is to intelligently guide human actions with a view to qualitative improvement of people, society, institutions, in short, the world of life (Cortina ; 2016).
