Abstract

Hilary Putnam y Jürgen Habermas comparten la convicción de que la finitud de la mente humana es una virtud y no una deficiencia. En este trabajo analizo esta convicción filosófica de ambos mediante la comparación de sus formas de renunciar a la concepción pragmática de la verdad y con una revisión de debate en torno a la objetividad de los valores y normas. Hilary Putnam and Jürgen Habermas share the conviction that the finitude of the human mind is a virtue and not a shortcoming. In this paper I track this shared philosophical conviction by comparing their ways of withdrawing the pragmatist conception of truth and by reviewing their debate on the objectivity of values and norms.
