Abstract
La función que la disciplina desempeña en el marco de la teoría kantiana de la educación recupera rasgos esenciales del obligado sometimiento de la razón —en su uso puro— a un examen que afecta al método del conocimiento derivado de ella. Nos proponemos discriminar algunas de las razones por las que el hombre, precisamente cuando pretende hacerse dueño de su propia razón, debe recurrir a aquellos medios que ésta le suministra para enfrentarse por sí mismo —como un hombre libre y no como un esclavo— a su disposición a la animalidad y a la salvaje sustracción a las leyes que esta comporta. Con ello, se pretende subrayar la importancia de una legislación negativa, del aprendizaje del obstáculo y del ejercicio del desprecio como una suerte de sustrato negativo de la moral, imprescindible para facilitar a las leyes de la razón pura práctica acceso e influencia duraderos en el ánimo.
The role played by discipline within the framework of Kant´s theory of education regains essential features of the obligatory subjection of reason, in its pure usage, to an examination that affects the method of knowledge derived from it. Our goal will be to shed light on the reasons why, precisely when he intends to master his own reason, man must resort to those means provided by that same reason in order to face by himself —not as a slave, but as a free man— his own propensity towards animality and the wild exemption to law entailed by it. Thus, our intention is to underline the importance of a negative legislation, of obstacle learning and the exercise of contempt as a sort of negative substratum of morality, indispensable in order to make easier to the laws of pure practical reason a lasting access and influence over the soul.
