TORRES GUILLEN, Jaime. On moral contempt: An outline for a critical theory on the outraged. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2013, vol.20, n.58, pp.9-35. ISSN 1665-0565.

This is a reflection on scenarios of offense and moral contempt from the standpoint of view of critical theory. It addresses the question of how philosophy impinges on social sciences when it has the purpose of building a precise grammar on outrage, when it is the outcome of violence directed towards persons by criminals, private institutions, states, the capitalist system, churches, and war conflicts. The article proposes basis for reconsidering the critical theory out of the thinking of Alex Honneth.

Palavras-chave : Critical theory; outrage; Axel Honneth; acknowledgment; contempt.
