Naturaleza humana y política en Denis Diderot.
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
The present paper aims to connect Diderot‘s conception of human being with his political ideas. Although we can‘t find in the philosopher‘s work a systematic treatise in which the study of human nature is used to support a certain political system, Diderot‘s empiricist epistemology and materialistic monism, with the consequential revalorization of body‘s passions, lead on to a moral and political thought in accordance with human nature, based on the idea of “universalism” and focused on individuals‘ happiness.
