The constitution of the modern state: the ideal of freedom for the principle of human dignity

Abstract

Presents the possibility of a better understanding of the factors which enabled the formation of the modern State and its relations coma restriction of freedom, later accentuated by capitalism, which replaces an ideal, and as such, and based on comprehensive models, which is the mirror classical antiquity, from the perspective of rights guaranteeing human dignity, expressing no more as an ideal to be striven for, but a minimum to be guaranteed, much in the field of formality, abstraction, than the actual practice and real actions that guarantee this dignity. The modern state and capitalist, an ideal substitute for a utopian formality, which he himself creates, but it sets limits for this to be conquered, and transformed into a material good, because freedom will now be associated with the condition of consumption.
