Resumen
¿Es posible que un filósofo promueva, con el ejemplo, la violencia como medio para la resolución de conflictos? Sócrates, Descartes, Rawls, Wittgenstein o Jonas, entre otros, son casos de quienes terminaron por distintas causas enrolándose en ejércitos o participando de algún modo en diversos conflictos bélicos. Muchos lograron a pesar de ello no mezclar sus filosofías con algo ajeno a la misma. Este artículo se propone indagar en la La filosofía de la redención de Mainländer a fin de detectar los peligros que acarrea enaltecer el uso de la violencia, elevando el amor a la patria a nivel de sabiduría filosófica. Este aspecto será identificado como el más delicado de su pensamiento, lo que explicará por qué se prescinde aquí de calificarlo de filósofo y se aluda a él como pensador en la medida que ciertas reflexiones que resultan ser esenciales en determinadas materias pudieron terminar siendo contaminadas por un fanatismo nacionalista. Esto abrirá la posibilidad de pensar en un criptobelicismo de base en algunos aspectos de su obra.
“The Problem of Violence in Mainländer’s Worldview”. Is it possible for a philosopher to, by example, promote violence as a means of conflict resolution? Socrates, Descartes, Rawls, Wittgenstein or Jonas, among others, are cases of those who ended up for different reasons enlisting in armies or participating in some way in various wars or conflicts. Despite this, many managed not to mix their philosophies with something alien to it. This article aims to investigate Mainländer’s The Philosophy of Redemption in order to detect the dangers of exalting the use of violence, by elevating love of the country to the level of philosophical wisdom. This aspect will be identified as the most critical of his thinking and will explain why he isn’t qualified as a philosopher in this paper, but referred to as a thinker. This is sustained to the extent that certain reflections that turn out to be essential in some matters could end up being contaminated by a nationalist fanaticism, opening the possibility of thinking about a base of crypto-bellicism in some aspects of his work.
