    La esquiva dimensión social: Una lectura de "Absolute Ethical Life" de Michael Lazarus

    Full text link
    Michael Lazarus\u27s Absolute Ethical Life (2025) reasserts the social as the foundation of ethical existence, challenging bourgeois individualism and capitalist alienation. By synthesizing Aristotle\u27s eudaimonia, Hegel\u27s Sittlichkeit, and Marx\u27s critique of commodity fetishism and surplus value, Lazarus argues that true ethical life arises only through collective, socially embedded praxis. The book addresses misreadings of Marx by 20th-century critics such as Arendt and MacIntyre, demonstrating the enduring moral core of Marx\u27s analysis of labor and alienation. In an era of political fragmentation and commodified existence, Lazarus calls for the reinstitution of sociality as the path to human redemption and freedom.Absolute Ethical Life (2025), de Michael Lazarus, reafirma lo social como fundamento de la existencia ética, desafiando el individualismo burgués y la alienación propia del capitalismo. Al sintetizar la eudaimonía de Aristóteles, la Sittlichkeit de Hegel y la crítica de Marx al fetichismo de la mercancía y al valor excedente, Lazarus sostiene que la verdadera vida ética solo surge a través de una praxis colectiva y socialmente arraigada. La obra responde a lecturas erróneas de Marx realizadas por críticos del siglo XX como Arendt y MacIntyre, demostrando el núcleo moral persistente en el análisis marxista del trabajo y la alienación. En una época de fragmentación política y existencia mercantilizada, Lazarus aboga por la reinstitución de la socialidad como vía hacia la redención y la libertad humanas
