Recognition, Life in the Beginning. Trying to do so from a Hegelian perspective

Abstract

Hegelian philosophical thought relevant we analyzed from the perspective of recognition, the aspects that put into consideration the respect for human life. Human life is a gift, is a hope, is a process that begins and must conclude, is a becoming, it is our responsibility. To address the ethical issues of life you have to do some preliminary reflections: thinking human. And to think the human is essential to consider the inseparable relationship between thinking and thinking about the human life. It is worthwhile therefore to ask how we relate to life and how we live that relation. Hegel mentioned in the preface to the Phenomenology of Spirit: "If it is true that the embryo is itself is a human being, not, however, for himself, for another human being is just as reason has been cultivated so that it is itself ". From that perspective, this statement leads us to reflection and every question that comes our way will be true in the action to be taken seriously and try it. The recognition is Hegel from the need to recognize the autonomy of the subject. While the subjects are different, requiring equal status in their condition of humanity and therefore dignity. But for Hegel the equal status of the subjects is what promotes precisely the conflict need to occur in individuals with the need to distinguish and differentiate themselves from others, and in this attempt at differentiation, be recognized. Beyond the moral minimum, to respect others, you need to build solidarity with the other, that is the attitude of sensitivity and feel part of a joint project as a human species in any stage of life.
