Consequences of psycho-social reductionism of conscience

Authors

Abstract

Despite the importance given to conscience nowadays, there is a large philosophical tradition derived from Schopenhauer, Nietzsche and Freud’s thoughts which have made it relative from the point of view of psycho-social reductionism, weighing down its comprehension.

The author proposes to recover the general principles that are worth guiding the ethical behaviors of all human beings, as participants of a common nature. In addition, he points out that conscience relativism has generated many problems that are immersed in the Bioethics field.
