Descripción
Sumario:This article aims primarily to understand the issue of freedom in Emmanuel Mounier’s philosophy. The question of freedom, throughout the history of human thought, has developed in many ways; and the treatment of such question, from Mounier’s philosophical thinking, reveals a great difficulty due to biased understandings regarding this fundamental concept of human life. Thus, there is a paradox, since, on the one hand, the difficulty of working on this issue is affirmed and, on the other hand, there is a widespread tendency in the world today to affirm it. These are distorted understandings which, therefore, need to be demystified in order to unfold an authentic conception of human freedom.
