Identificación de la teoría del conocimiento de David Hume en las interpretaciones filosóficas de la pandemia COVID-19

Abstract

The COVID - 19 virus has caused great global changes and upheavals in the world and society. These changes range from a health, political, social and economic crisis that have affected hundreds of thousands of people, even ending the lives of many of them. These analyzes are reviewed from the interpretations of great thinkers of contemporary times such as: Enrique Dussel, Slavoj Žižek and Byung-Chul Han. Their contributions distinguish everything in terms of how the pandemic has disturbed society in general. Likewise, these contributions range from philosophy, political philosophy, ethics, ecology, sociology and how the human being knows, faces and tries to survive in the face of the pandemic. These analyzes are considered from the studies of the theory of knowledge of the modern philosopher David Hume, who with its foundations helps to understand how human nature knows through the association of ideas, causality, custom, imagination and the beliefs. Thanks to the philosophical studies linked between contemporary philosophical interpretations and David Hume's theory of knowledge, it is possible to understand in depth how humans know and relate to the pandemic and its effects on society.
