Abstract

After the 15-M Movement, also referred to as the Indignant People’s movement, this paper proposes a new approach to action theory and radical democracy. From a critical reading of Kant’s ethical philosophy and an analysis of Aristotle’s action theory, the author proposes an ontology of action and he argues that the disjunctive imperative is the basis of radical democracy.
