Una aproximación casuística a la cuestión de la aplicación del derecho injusto en la filosofía moral kantiana

Abstract

This paper deals with the issue of the application of unjust law from a problematic case for Kantian practical philosophy, as it is the duty of an agent to execute a valid order, which considers unjust and against morality, whose consequences are eminently prejudicial to the humanity of others. In this sense, it will investigate about the possible conduct in which the agent, under the circumstances raised, can perform in a moral and discretionary way according to Kantian precepts, identifying and explaining the different mandates imposed by the categorical imperative and how the agent would face an eventual conflict between ethical and legal duties.
