Beck, a member of the Göttingen-Munich phenomenological circle and direct disciple of Alexander Pfänder, defends an acute realism with respect to both physical things and human psychism. The first section analyses consciousness and freedom as features of moral personality. Consciousness is not merely intentional direction to objects but also immediate apprehension of them, whereas the I means the individual enclosed in itself. Analogously, the will can open itself to reality in its concretion through love or it can engage solely in the search for selfish ends. All moral fulfilment reaches this crossroad proper to a realist anthropology. The second section presents an analogous disjunctive in the political sphere: either the democratic will which is guided by the common good or the isolation fostered in the XX century by nationalisms and by the colectiviste State. Choosing the former entails discarding all psychologist (like in Nietzsche) and socioeconomic (proper to Marxism) reductionism and respecting the intrinsic dignity of the person.

The paper starts with focusing on three forms in which ‘Civil Ethics’ can be considered, accord-ing to whether we approach it from the minimum Ethics common to the citizens, or universal rights, or the ethical backbone of civil society. Subsequently, the paper examines historical rea-sons that account for the imposition of the above mentioned. Which would there be the most suitable one? If civil freedom and equality are to be ethical and metaphysical mainstays of democ-ratic values, the article shows the weakness of the first two approaches. As the third one is con-cerned, it seems to be fruitful insofar as democratic values are accompanied by civic virtues, which are the only ones that can make them effective. The article is concluded with an analysis of the virtues of responsibility, strength, and prudence with the particular connotation that they have in the realm of public life.

The article opens with an exposition of the notion of solidarity as an interper-sonal link, in opposition to the conventional association of individuals. In the first instance, such solidarity characterizes the Eucharistic communion which embraces those who feed from the same Bread and Wine, and is not understood as a passive effect of the sacrament, but as moral virtue which springs up from the cooperation with Jesus the Redeemer. Secondly, solidarity assimilates the life of a man to that of his Saviour which is echoed with the words of St. Paul: “and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me” (Ga. 2, 20). And, thirdly, solidarity, which finds its basis in the Eucharist, can not expect its fulfilment in this earthly life of man, but only in reaching the glorious floor of heaven.

El artículo consta de tres secciones. En primer lugar, asistimos a la evolución semántica del concepto de nación, desde una agrupación cultural hasta la unidad política provista de soberanía. Seguidamente examinamos los condicionantes históricos que llevaron a la transformación de su condición integradora en los nacionalismos reivindicativos y secesionistas. En la tercera parte se aborda el interrogante ético de a quién pertenece la soberanía, si a la nación o al estado. Desde los principios de subsidiaridad y de promoción del bien común se fundamenta que la soberanía reside en el estado y tiene su límite en que se dirige a las personas a título de funcionarios públicos. Adjudicar la soberanía a la nación es incurrir en un quid pro quo, al atribuirle el servicio de la autoridad que cae en la órbita estatal.

The article is divided into three sections. First, we focus on the semantic evolution of the concept of nation, from a cultural grouping to a political unit with sovereignty. We then examine the historical conditions that led to the transformation of its integrative nature into nationalist claims and secessionist nationalisms. The third part addresses the ethical question of to whom sovereignty belongs, the nation or the state. The principles of subsidiarity and promotion of the common good argue that sovereignty resides in the state and is limited by the fact that it is addressed to individuals as public officials. To attribute sovereignty to the nation is to incur in a quid pro quo, by attributing to it the service of authority that falls within the orbit of the state.
