El doble acceso fenomenológico-ético a la realidad del otro en la filosofía de Paul Ricoeur

this paper pretends to be an introduction to the problem of intersubjectivity from paul ricouer's point of view, considering the double access, ethical and gnoseological, to otherness reality. first, it will be examined how, according to ricoeur, husserlian phenomenology must face its more definitory test, the explicitation of intersubjectivity phenomenon, and how can it be surpassed. second, it will be shown that ricoeur does not reduce the access to the other to egological constitution, but, on the contrary, subordinates it to the ethical a priori of respect, which poses the other as other before any attempt of phenomenological constitution or sympathetic approach. our intention is to state that ricoeur does not exclude any of these two approaches: ricouer's position is one of a genetical phenomenology which tracks foreign from owness, attending principally to the ethical intentionality of man as definitory in the intersubjective order.
