Resumen
En este artículo quiero defender una interpretación, entendida en los términos del “realismo moral” de algunos de los argumentos morales cruciales propuestos por los filósofos Thomas Pogge, Peter Singer y el argentino Francisco García Gibson, para identificar el mal moral que entraña la pobreza extrema, así como aportarle soluciones plausibles. ¿Por qué tendría sentido defender la interpretación propuesta? Para responder a esto debo decir que seguiré un camino donde empezaré definiendo lo que es el realismo moral para luego, extraídas sus consecuencias, conectarlas con tres muestras ejemplares de lo que considero casos prácticos que cuentan, pese a las cautelas de sus autores, como realistas en términos morales. Dado que esta conexión no resulta para nada obvia, estamos frente a un problema filosófico que vale la pena explorar.
In this article I want to defend an interpretation, understood in terms of “moral realism”, of some of the crucial moral arguments proposed by the philosophers Peter Singer, Thomas Pogge and the Argentinian Francisco García Gibson in order to identify a kind of extreme evil that poverty entails, as well as to providing plausible solutions to it. Why would it make sense to defend the proposed interpretation? To answer this question, I must say that I will follow a path where I will begin by defining what moral realism is and then, having extracted its consequences, connecting them with three exemplary samples of what I consider to be practical cases that, despite the caution of their authors, count as realists in moral terms. Since this connection is not at all obvious, we are faced with a philosophical problem that is worth exploring.
