Abstract
Este ensayo trata de mostrar la aplicabilidad de un enfoque evolucionista a la cuestión aparentemente más ajena a ello: los derechos humanos. El primer apartado esboza los rasgos metodológicos y metaéticos de un enfoque de la ética en general, y de los derechos humanos en particular, inspirado por el subjetivismo económico de la Escuela austríaca: un enfoque genéricamente positivista, pero específicamente evolucionista. El segundo apartado formula algunas hipótesis históricas sobre los orígenes y la evolución de los derechos humanos en la tradición ética y jurídica occidental. El tercer apartado, finalmente, refina algunas herramientas teóricas para el análisis de la interpretación constitucional de los derechos humanos, como valores institucionalizados por principios y garantizados por reglas.
Highlights
Human rights, a traditionally intractable subject to legal positivism, are analyzed here with a generally positivist, but evolutionist approach —a distinction is drawn, between a merely evolutionary and a full-blown evolutionist one—
The second section proposes some historical hypotheses about the origins and the evolution of rights in the ethical and legal Western tradition
The third and last section refines some theorethical tools for the analysis of constitutional interpretation, distinguishing ethical values, constitutional principles and statutory rules
Summary
A traditionally intractable subject to legal positivism, are analyzed here with a generally positivist, but evolutionist approach —a distinction is drawn, between a merely evolutionary and a full-blown evolutionist one—.
