Del From Personalism to Selfishness

Abstract

Faced with the vertiginous increase in new social struggles that seek to give the person a new vision of themselves, today they lack fundamental elements based on truth and reason, since they do not take into account their dignity, much less their significance. The deformation or simple gradual elimination of certain basic principles or criteria in their original context, such as freedom, love, responsibility and the meaning of life can lead man to the destruction of himself and of society, corrupting its foundations. It is here that the postulates of personalism, which focuses on the person, seeing him as a being that relates to others, being a social being that realizes with the other, without losing his identity and his value for himself, practicing Responsible freedom, being able to love and be ethical, must be recovered, because it understands the importance of man and his performance as such.
