  • Editorial: Our initial starting point is that the humanities have always been the formative basis of a society that subsists over time. Without them, every society becomes technocratic and tends to subsume the image of the human being to criteria that end up distancing it from its essence. The consequences are manifested in an instrumentalization of human relations that end up considering the utilitarian or pragmatic criteria as the ultimate foundation of our moral foundation. In such a situation, democracy is devoid of elements that guarantee the common good of citizens and thus ensure a coexistence in justice and peace
