DE MIGUEL, Jorge Raúl. Lisandro de la Torre on Politics and Philosophy. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2006, n.8, pp.103-113. ISSN 1851-9490.
The article analyses Lisandro de la Torre's philosophical ideas. He was an important Argentinian politician, who had an active public life, mainly, as a legislator, between 1890 and 1937. The study is based upon some lectures and writings from his last years. His cosmological view is examined through the relation among philosophy, science and religion, on one hand, and through his anthropological account, on the other hand. The influence of pantheism and positivism is pointed out in both perspectives. It is criticised de la Torre's claim about politics as an anti-philosophical activity by arguing that philosophy and politics may be considered as foundations of his thought.
