Abstract

El enfoque de Sen se presenta como una alternativa en el terreno de la justicia distributiva. Su noción central es la de capacidad de agencia, es decir, la libertad efectiva para alcanzar aquello que se tienen razones para valorar. A su vez, la idea de agencia cognitiva refiere a la capacidad de revisar o reforzar estas razones. Bajo la autocomprensión de las sociedades modernas, la única forma válida de desarrollarla es a través de la deliberación pública. Del intercambio surgen los recursos morales que permiten modificar la concepción del bien y fortalecer sentido de justicia de los sujetos.The Sen’s approach is presented as an alternative in the field of distributive justice. Its main concept is the capability of agency, namely the effective freedom to achieve whatever you have reason to value. In turn, the idea of cognitive agency refers to the capability to review and strengthen these reasons. Under the self-understanding of modern societies, the only valid way to develop them is through public deliberation. Through the exchange emerge the moral resources that allow to modify the conception of the good and strengthen the sense of justice of the people.
