UNA APROXIMACIÓN A LA REFLEXIÓN DE ROBERT SPAEMANN SOBRE LA ANATOMÍA DE LA FELICIDAD. LA ANTINOMIA DE LA FELICIDAD Y EL AMOR BENEVOLENTE.

In Happiness and Benevolence Robert Spaemann asks himself where happiness belongs in relation to the person. To the inside or the outside? This takes the German philosopher into deeper research on apparently antagonizing concepts. It is certain that one of the goals of his philosophical approach has been that of overcoming dualism. The quest for indicating where happiness is located moves Spaemann to criticize the antiteleologism as part of the paradigm in modernity. For him, happiness belongs to the inside of the person and to the outside too. Someo- ne could say “I am happy” but in his behavior show bitterness. This would be a contradiction. On the other hand, one can see somebody in a deep pain and still living it with serenity and spirituality. This article tries to show this debate including the role personal structures such as Freedom play in it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
