Resumen
La tesis principal de este trabajo es que el principio con el que Kant comprende el origen de la cultura o de la historia humana en la tesis cuarta de Idea de una historia universal desde el punto de vista cosmopolita, la insociable sociabilidad, no implica “conceptualmente” el mal moral. Defiendo así, contra una larga tradición de lectura que sostiene lo contrario, que la cultura es producto de dos disposiciones diferentes de la especie humana que son originarias e independientes de su carácter moral y, por lo tanto, también son independientes de su propensión inmoral (mal moral). Esto significa, específicamente, que si hubiera unos seres racionales que fueran como nosotros, sociables e insociables, pero que no tuvieran noticia, a diferencia de nosotros, de la ley moral, esto es, que fueran moralmente inocentes, producirían, sin embargo, cultura. Como tesis secundarias muestro que se pueden establecer otras relaciones de implicación entre los conceptos de insociable sociabilidad y mal moral: por un lado, inversamente, el mal moral puede implicar “conceptualmente” la insociable sociabilidad; por otro lado, este último principio implica “contingentemente” el mal moral cuando es referido a la especie humana.
The main thesis of this paper is that the principle through which Kant understands the origin of culture or of human history in the fourth thesis of the Idea for a Universal History with a Cosmopolitan Purpose, the unsociable sociability, does not “conceptually” imply moral evil. I defend, against a long tradition of reading that supports the opposite, that culture is a product of two dispositions of human nature, which are original and independent from its moral (or immoral) character. Thus, if there were rational beings who were, like us, sociable and unsociable but, unlike us, did not have any news of the moral law, that is to say, that they were morally innocent, they would produce, nevertheless,ulture. As a secondary thesis, I show that other relationships of implication between the concepts of unsociable sociability and moral evil can be established: on one hand, I inversely show that moral evil can “conceptually” imply unsociable sociability and, on the other, that the latter principle contingently implies moral evil when it is referred to human being.
