A moralidade tem uma chance na concepção da eticidade de Hegel?

Abstract

The article discusses Hegel’s opinion that morality, in effect, represents an important understanding of right and freedom, although it is not definitive, it is surpassed by the ethical understanding of right and freedom. In morality, we deal with the right and freedom to acquire life orientation by the subjective self-determination, in which the singular subjects can claim to establish a distinction between “correct” and “false”, “good” and “evil” from themselves. In Hegel’s critique of morality, he presents the right and the limits of the right of freedom moral understanding. Through his critique about the morality, Hegel prepares the land for his conception of ethics, in which the singular subject’s understanding of freedom is formed by the guidance in institutions of the ethical community. The will and action are understood as expression of an understanding of freedom collectively practiced. Hegel does not discuss on the restoration of the ancient ethics that does not know the moral freedom yet, but he does it in a new way of State ethics that can be performed under the Modernity conditions. It is worth examining whether and how Hegel fulfills the integration of morality in his conception of ethics, which is required by him. In this case, we can realize that Hegel integrates morality only in a sense ethically non specific in government ethics, according to which the subjective will may identify itself with the state institutions; apart from this, he leaves the morality under the bourgeois society and it lends useful compensation services for the State, that considers superfluous the political and social assistance given to the poor.
