La controversia entre Hegel y Schleiermacher sobre el sentido de la religión

This paper confronts the Hegel and Schleiermacher positions on the meaning of religion in the context of various philosophical and theological controversies that took place in Germany between the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. Oppositions are highlighted, especially concerning the relationship of faith and reason and the foundations of ethics. As well, the possibility of proving the existence of God, the relationship with pantheism, and the history of religions are studied.En el contexto de diversas controversias filosófico-teológicas que tuvieron lugar en Alemania entre finales del siglo XVIII y comienzos del siglo XIX, se confrontan las posiciones de Hegel y Schleiermacher sobre el sentido de la religión, tanto en la obra temprana como en la obra madura de ambos. Resaltan sobre todo las oposiciones relativas a la relación de la fe con la razón y con los fundamentos de la ética, a la posibilidad de probar la existencia de Dios, a la relación con el panteísmo, y a la historia de las religione

Persona y libertad: lecturas desde la diversidad, la complejidad y la conflictividad

El presente libro analiza, desde visiones históricas y teóricas diversas pero convergentes, los problemas centrales de la estructura antropológica de la persona en relación con la libertad –como centro de la dignidad personal– y con las posibilidades y los límites de la acción libre y sus condicionamientos. El texto pone en evidencia la tensión entre racionalidad y responsabilidad al estudiar la libertad en su núcleo y en sus bordes, como decisión de la persona que la compromete responsablemente con el otro y los otros, desde los espacios de la voluntad, la experiencia y la intersubjetividad. De la mano de autores que, desde Aristóteles hasta la antropología contemporánea, son referentes imprescindibles, el texto esclarece el origen de las elecciones en las que se expresa la libertad y permite profundizar en su comprensión como idea y como contenido, en su complejidad y conflictividad. Con un enfoque antropológico integrador, la obra estudia aspectos fundamentales de la relación persona-libertad desde la ética, la psicología, la política, la metafísica y la teología, y pone de relieve el valor de la finalidad, la autonomía y los entornos de comunidad en los que la libertad se realiza. Finalmente, la argumentación sobre la centralidad de la persona resulta especialmente valiosa en tiempos de visiones que reducen lo humano al consumo, la producción o la ideología. Las conclusiones del volumen revalorizan el fundamento y la posibilidad del obrar libre que responsabiliza y compromete.1ª ed.Presentación Ser humano y autonomía de la acción.

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.

NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used.
