Normativiness of coercion in the Kantian legal system in three steps
Palabras clave:
deduction, unconditionality, normativity, coercion, procedureResumen
The purpose of this paper is to argue about how legal deduction based on freedom can promote the normativity of right. Without being able to offer a definitive answer, the debate on the distinction between ethics and right is used as a strategy to address the arguments in favor of a strong and unconditional normativity of right. In this context, it is argued that Kantian right is derived from practical freedom and is a subspecies of morality, from which derives its unconditional normative force. This connection can be made from the objective practical reality of right, through which is perceptible a singular and unconditional legal-normative externality, which should not be reduced to the factual reality of positive right. The consequence of these arguments is that, for legal coercion to be normatively consistent, it must be based on legal reasons, that is, argumentative evidence that can be fundamentally traced back to practical freedom. In the end, a validation procedure of coercion is presented in three steps, clarifying how it would be possible to identify the unconditionality of the right normativity in the legal Kantian system.
