    Value Systems and Their Influence on Managerial Mindsets and Managers’ Volitions
    (2020)
    Casanueva Fernández, Antonio
    ;
    Senior managers seek to align managerial endeavors with the organization’s objectives. Traditionally, alignment has focused on monitoring and rewarding the achievement of assigned targets. However, there is evidence to suggest that organizations may also seek to align managerial “values” with those of the organization. These attempts to influence managerial mindsets through management control systems raise non-trivial questions regarding the systems involved, the reasons behind them, and the possible consequences of such attempts. These questions form the basis of this research, and this chapter reports on two case studies of Mexican organizations that claim to have a values-based philosophy. This study contributes to the management literature by presenting empirical evidence related to certain philosophical ideas on the development of human potential and senior managers’ attempts to influence their employees’ will. In detailing the implementation process of two specific value systems, this chapter fills a gap identified in the management control literature.

    Hedoné, teleíosis and enérgeia in Aristotle
    (2019)
    Hedoné, teleíosis and enérgeia in Aristotle · The aim of this paper is to discuss the Aristotelian defnition of pleasure in Nicomachean Ethics x 4. In those passages, Aristotle offers several arguments to prove that pleasure is not a movement (kínesis), or a coming into being. The nature of pleasure would imply a diferent kind of assimilation, something closer to an enérgeia. Even though, it is not clear in those texts, if pleasure is strictly speaking an activity or something that completes it. We fnd passages pointing out in both directions. In any case, a pleasure would complete an activity not as the inherent state does, but as an end which supervenes, just «as the bloom of youth does on those in the fower of their age». I will try to clarify the sense of this metaphor in the framework of Aristotle’s ontology and his ethical account in order to explain the Aristotelian defnition of pleasure.

    The Causality of the Prime Mover in Metaphysics Λ
    (2016)
    The aim of this paper is to propose a critical revision of the traditional interpretation of Met. Λ, according to which the Aristotelian Prime Mover is the final cause that explains the eternal movement of the heaven, rather than a formal or an efficient cause postulated for the same purpose. The importance of this discussion is widely acknowledged, and it is a subject upon which there is no unanimous agreement among interpreters. The different accounts of the causal relationship between the Unmoved Mover and the physical world have given rise to one of the most recurrent controversies in the history of the transmission of the Corpus Aristotelicum, and it is a question that does not admit simple or simplistic answers. ©2016 Walter de Gruyter GmbH

    Reflexión bioética interdisciplinaria en torno a la edición genética con CRISPR-Cas en línea germinal en el contexto del transhumanismo
    (2019-02-13)
    ;
    ;
    ;
    ;
    The purpose of this article is to explain some of the implications of using the CRISPR-Cas technique in the germinal line for non-therapeutic purposes, in the context of transhumanism. After giving a brief explanation about the nature of this technique, the state of the question is offered in relation to the current international regulations. Afterwards, the consequences of the development of this technique within the framework of the transhumanism project are observed and it offers legal, political and anthropological reflections on these consequences. © 2019 Centro de Investigacion Social Avanzada.

    Dios, causalidad y movimiento en la Suma Teológica de santo Tomás de Aquino
    (2022)
    This paper aims to offer a reconstruction of the First Way (Prima Via) proposed by Thomas Aquinas to demonstrate the existence of God in the Summa Theologiae. The Thomist argument in that work explains, first, what kind of rational discourse can be articulated to talk about God’s existence and essence. After he elaborates on the previous point, Aquinas proposes a series of arguments intended to resolve the question of the existence of a divine being and his attributes. In what concerns this present text, we will focus on the first way proposed there in favour of the thesis “God exists” and we will also talk about the discursive context in which this proof appears. Thomas refers to it as the first and clearest proof of them all. © 2022, Editorial Balmes. All rights reserved.

    Réplica a: nuevos sentidos del concepto de μίμησις en la poética de Aristóteles
    (Universidad Panamericana. Facultad de Filosofía, 2005)
    ;
    JOSE ALBERTO ROSS HERNANDEZ;39061
    “En la réplica, quisiera centrarme en dos cosas. En primer lugar, en el énfasis que pone la autora en la noción de "hilazon" (perainousa), pues resulta muy sugerente, incluso para la interpretación de otros textos del mismo Aristóteles, En concreto, me parece que esa noción puede ser interesante para un lector de las obras aristotélicas de Filosofía de la Naturaleza, como es mi caso. En la Física, por mencionar alguna de sus obras, Aristóteles echa mano en varias ocasiones de ejemplos tomados de la actividad artística como parte de su, argumentación”--Pág. [235].

    Causality, Nature and Fate in Alexander of Aphrodisias
    (2016)
    The aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between "causality", "nature", and "fate" in the De Fato of Alexander of Aphrodisias. The Greek commentator offers several arguments against determinism in the mentioned book, but I will focus my attention on only one of them in order to achieve my purpose. Alexander points out that everything that is "in accordance with nature" (katà tèn phúsin) is also "in accordance with fate" (kath'heimarménen). I will try to clarify this point and I will consider some novel aspects of Alexander's theory which emerge in the reconstruction of his assimilation of Aristotelianism.

    Abstracción y presencia : observaciones sobre los orígenes de la filosofía en Leonardo Polo
    (Universidad de Navarra, 2015)
    El propósito de este trabajo es presentar algunos aspectos de la recepción de la filosofía antigua en Leonardo Polo. En particular, este artículo se centrará en su explicación acerca del origen histórico del pensamiento filosófico. Polo sostiene que si la abstracción es la primera operación intelectual, la filosofía griega es la primera filosofía. En su opinión, su propuesta epistemológica tiene verificación histórica y apela a los filósofos antiguos para probarlo. En este contexto, sus referencias a los pensadores griegos tienen un propósito temático, y no sólo historiográfico. ©2016 Studia Poliana, Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra

    La defensa aristotélica del uso de explicaciones teleológicas en Física II 8
    (Universidad Panamericana. Facultad de Filosofía, 2006)
    ;
    JOSE ALBERTO ROSS HERNANDEZ;39061
    Este ensayo intenta ofrecer una reconstrucción de los argumentos de Aristóteles del uso de explicaciones teleológicas en Física II 8. En su exposición de los pasajes seleccionados Ross pone cierto énfasis en el carácter dialógico del discurso para hacer una modesta contribución a la solución de dos acertijos: uno de carácter exegético, y el otro sistemático. Esta lectura permite al autor introducir un nuevo elemento en la discusión concerniente a qué alcances y límites hay de las explicaciones teleológicas en la Física de Aristóteles. En opinión de Ross, esta estrategia es útil para adelantar en la comprensión de cuál es el tipo de argumentos que pueden ofrecerse cuando lo que se está considerando es si la teleología o el mecanicismo son el esquema explicativo más apropiado para dar cuenta de los fenómenos naturales.
