CUCHUMBE HOLGUIN, Nelson Jair    SUAREZ ASTAIZA, Jeison Andrés. Self-responsibility and the idea of renewal of man and culture in Husserl's personalist ethics: An approach from the parricide karamázov. []. , 16, 27, pp.175-192. ISSN 0124-6127.  https://doi.org/10.17151/difil.2015.16.27.11.

In this paper we examine Husserl's ethics contribution to the understanding of human action determined by self-responsibility. We admit that self-responsibility is that 'capacity' of any subject to take a reflective stance on himself and his life. In this sense, the subject only experiences fully being responsible when guides his reason in the multidimensionality of his actions, aiming at a personal and cultural renewal. To show this, we firstly analyze the project of renewal of man and culture in the personalist ethics proposed by Husserl, viewed from the history of parricide Karamazov. Secondly, we inquire about one of the two dimensions of human personality, self-awareness and presence of oneself, to approach the complex intentional act in which this self-consciousness takes place. Thirdly, we analyze how the ability of self-determination, the other key dimension of the person, makes possible the self-appraisal by which the new man values his actions, motives, means and ends. We conclude that the self guides his life in full participation and emotional manifestation out of experiences that strengthen the 'self' and the 'us'.
