AFECTIVIDAD, RESPONSIVIDAD Y RESPONSABILIDAD. INTRODUCCIÓN A UNA ARQUEOLOGÍA DE LA VIDA AFECTIVA Y SU SIGNIFICACIÓN ÉTICA A PARTIR DEL PENSAMIENTO DE E. LEVINAS
Resumen. El artículo analiza la significación originaria de la sensibilidad como pathos y sus implicancias éticas a partir del pensamiento levinasiano. El análisis persigue tres objetivos. Primero mostrar que las distintas formas de la afectividad presuponen como origen último un pathos de la sensibilidad. Segundo explicitar en qué medida la afectividad en tanto pathos se da siempre inserta en una estructura responsiva. Finalmente elucida en qué medida la significación originaria de la afectividad interhumana es de carácter ético, en cuanto la responsividad implica responsabilidad, pero, a diferencia de Levinas, considera que, justamente por fundarse en un pathos, esa responsabilidad no es ilimitada. Palabras-clave: afectividad, sensación, responsividad, responsabilidad, Levinas Affectivity, sensation and responsability. An introduction to one Archeology of effectiv life and their ethic Meaning conforming to the Though of E. Levinas Abstract. The article analizes the originary significance of sensibility as pathos and its ethical implications on the basis of Levinas’s thought. The purpose of this analysis is threefold. First, an attempt is made to show that the different forms of affectivity presuppose, as their ultimate origin, a pathos of sensibility. Second, there is provided a clarification of how affectivity as a pathos is always embedded in a responsive structure. Finally, the article deals with the degree in which the originary significance of interhuman affectivity has an ethical character insofar as responsivity implies responsibility. In contrast to Levinas, it is argued that, precisely because it is grounded on a pathos, this responsibility is not unlimited. Key-words. Affectivity, sensation, responsivity, responsibility, Levinas
