Mutual Recognition in Paul Ricoeur’s Philosophical Project: Action and Compromise in a Political Context

Main Article Content
Abstract
This article reflects on mutual recognition in Paul Ricoeur's philosophy from a political scope, developing through capabilities and under the sign of the capable person, the disposition to a shared life that does not exclude conflicts, but calls for a hermeneutic exercise. We start from the understanding that in the orthogonal structure of politics a equilibrium and a critical barrier between struggles and states of peace are required. This equilibrium is declared under the figure of compromise, where mutuality finds its maximum expression: it recognizes differences and pluralism and transcends particular interests and desires in favor of fair, but never absolute, solutions.
