DIAZ GOMEZ, Zenorina Guadalupe  and  CASTORENA DAVIS, Lorella. Introduction to Ágnes Heller’s Incomplete Ethical-political Conception of Justice: Some Considerations to Continue Thinking About a Theory of Justice for the Present. Rev. filos.open insight [online]. 2022, vol.13, n.27, pp.11-36.  Epub June 20, 2022. ISSN 2395-8936.  https://doi.org/10.23924/oi.v13i27.439.

The present article looks to emphasize the relevance of the incomplete ethicalpolitical concept of justice elaborated by Ágnes Heller, for example the normative proposal for a global justice, which also emphasizes the need to renounce to the ambitious project of a complete justice, for such idea hasn´t only proven to be naïve but also dangerous. Instead, it proposes to think about justice as a process in constant construction, consequence of the permanent evaluation that people do about their life conditions. Thus, the perspective of incompleteness invites us to reflect over the meaning of the historical struggles for justice at the same time it traces reasonable limits to our expectations of justice for the present and future.

Keywords : Ágnes Heller; global justice; incompleteness; modernity; pluralism.
