PARRA CAMACHO, Óscar Iván. The hegelian universality for an ethical perspective of disability. Andamios [online]. 2022, vol.19, n.49, pp.117-135.  Epub June 05, 2023. ISSN 2594-1917.  https://doi.org/10.29092/uacm.v19i49.922.

The thought of G.W.F. Hegel has come back relevant for the comprehension of historical changes and the production of subjectivities. The core argument of this article asserts that for the consideration of an ethical proposal that tends towards universality, disability must be reflected as a concept that mediates the constitutive relation of subjectivity with bodily and psychological diversity. Hegel’s philosophical system and dialectics allow to display the way in which disability, as universality, is necessary to comprehend the inconsistency of capitalist society. The ethical proposal of disability leads to consider the impossibility to overcome the inner contradiction of bodily and psychological identity.

Keywords : Disability; ethics; Hegel; identity; universality.
