ARISTIZABAL HOYOS, Pedro Juan  e  OCAMPO ORTIZ, Oscar Eduardo. Renewal as an ethical responsibility in the phenomenological perspective. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2017, n.72, pp.121-138. ISSN 0120-3916.

This work aims to present ethics as a necessary activity in the current society. The ethical renewal of man and culture requires the individual and collective responsibility of people. This consideration is grounded in one of Husserl's ethica projects from 1920. What is the responsibility of man to himself and to culture in such a historical project? To answer this question, one must investigate the responsibility and the constitution of the human being as a free and critical person. Taking the lifeworld experience as a fundamental ground, his own constituting rationality makes him engaged and elaborate horizons of sense. This reflection is developed in three stages. First, the article examines the method of eidetic variation and the phenomenon related to the origin of ethics. Second, it proposes critical reflection as a fundamental aspect for the renewal of man and culture, in which self-awareness as consciousness of the self is essential in such process. Last, and derived from the former, it presents the concepts of person and freedom as a condition of the possibility for an ethical, fair, and inclusive society.
