Ambas cartas paulinas, Galatas y Romanos, abordan la cuestionde la Ley y la relacion entre la Ley y la salvacion. Ambas proponen el papelcentral del Mesias Jesus en el cumplimiento de la Ley y los limites de estapara la redencion. Ambas cartas consideran la idea de la justificacion y lalibertad. Sin embargo, mientras que Galatas pone enfasis en la libertad(eleuteria) del creyente ante la Ley, la palabra clave en Romanos, para elmismo problema, es la justicia (dikaiosýne). ?Por que este cambio de enfasisen el argumento? ?Cual es la relacion entre la libertad de la Ley y lajusticia aparte de la Ley? El uso del concepto de la Ley como un dispositivo(en la comprension de Foucault y Agamben de lo que es un dispositivo)nos ayudara a relacionar ambos argumentos y tambien mostrar su valorhermeneutico para las cuestiones de politica internacional hoy frente al Imperio. Between Liberty and Justice: from Galatians to Romans Abstract: Both Pauline letters, Galatians and Romans, deal with the issueof the law and the relationship between law and salvation. Both proposethe central role of the Messiah Jesus in the fulfillment of the law and thelimits of the law for the redemption. Both letters deal with the idea of justificationand freedom. Yet, while Galatians puts the stress on the liberty(eleuteria) of the believer in face of the law, the key word in Romans, concerning the same issue, is justice (dikaiosýne). Why this change of emphasisin the argument? What is the relationship between liberty from the lawand justice apart from the law? The use of the concept of the law as a device(following Foucault and Agamben’s understanding of what is a device– also translated into English as dispositive or apparatus) will help us torelate both arguments, and also show its hermeneutical value for the issuesof today’s international politics in face of the Empire.
