    En el presente artículo defino los desafíos a la solidaridad en la era de la globalización en términos de las limitaciones impuestas a ella por: a) la estructura y los valores del capitalismo global, b) la pertenencia política al Estado-Nación y c) la pertenencia a grupos culturales que no permiten la autorreflexión, el aprendizaje y el cambio. A partir de la Filosofía para Hacer las Paces de Martínez Guzmán, re-defino en seguida el ser político desde nuestras competencias humanas para la extensión de la solidaridad a los extranjeros: a) la capacidad de comunicación y comprensión mutua, b) la capacidad de reconocimiento del otro y c) la capacidad de cooperación. Al final, aplico esa comprensión revisada del ser político para delinear los cambios institucionales políticos necesarios para la extensión de la solidaridad: a) una esfera pública global, b) una política doméstica global y c) una constitución para la sociedad mundial.

    This article approaches the challenges to solidarity in the age of globalization in terms of the limitations set to it by a) the structure and values of global capitalism, b) political membership to the Nation-State, and c) membership to cultural groups that do not allow self-reflection, learning and changing. Building on Martínez Guzmán ́s Philosophy for Peace, the political self from the perspective of our human competences to extend solidarity to strangers are redefined, more specifically, a) our capacity to communicate and understand each other, b) our capacity to recognize sameness in each other, c) our capacity to cooperate. At the end, this revised understanding of the self is applied to identify the political institutional changes that are necessary for the extension of solidarity: a) atransnational public sphere, b) global domestic politics, and c) a constitution for the world society.
