La difícil distinción entre humanos y animales

Abstract

The concept "animal" is not frequently analysed, neither the fact of how we can speak about something as "animals". On the road leading to come to understanding of how human beings distinguish themselves from other animals, we have examined the proposals of Bimbenet, Heidegger, Rousseau and Lévi-Strauss as well as those of the empirical anthropologists Washburn and Moore, and the one of Lee Berger. It is necessary to decide whether what is distinguished is a fact or a criteria settled by the researcher.
