Theodor W. Adorno e a dialética material da moral

Theodor W. Adorno and the material dialectic of morality

  • Adorno pensou a filosofia moral em diversos momentos de sua carreira filosófica, notadamente em Minima Moralia (1951), Dialética Negativa (1966) e em seu curso publicado postumamente Probleme der Moralphilosophie (1996). Uma avaliação conjunta desses textos permite indicar a centralidade do que Adorno chamou de “dialética da moral” – entre impulso somático e racionalidade – na constituição da experiência do prático. Além disso, as reflexões sobre a moral são um momento privilegiado das análises metafilosóficas de Adorno, que identificam em boa parte da tradição filosófica ocidental sobre a moral a presença da dominação da natureza interna – processo que caberia à dialética materialista da moral criticar e ajudar a transformar.
  • Adorno has addressed moral philosophical issues in several moments of his philosophical career, particularly Minima Moralia (1951), Negative Dialectics (1966) and in his (posthumously published) university course Problems of Moral Philosophy (1996). This article assumes that a combined account of these texts can indicate the importance of what Adorno has called “dialectics of morality” between somaticimpulse and reason as the foundation of the experience of practical sphere. Furthermore, Adorno’s thoughts on morality are a privileged moment of his metaphilosophical analysis which identifies in the majority of western tradition of moral philosophy the sign of a wider process of domination of inner nature. According to Adorno, a major task of the material dialectic of morality should be to disclose and contribute to change this domination process.
