Hobbes: una excepción al contrato sexual

Abstract

It will be elucidated, from Hobbes’ philosophical statements, Carole Pateman’s assertion, namely, that Hobbes is an exception to what she has denominated “sexual contract” within the classic contractualism. On basic lines, it will be explained what it is the sexual contract, to aboard on the Malmesburian’s exception of this sexual contract, showing how men and women are equal on his philosophical statement, and subsequently to recreate and explain Pateman’s hypothesis about women exclusion from the original pact, providing hobbesian textual basis. It will be concluded with a reflection on Pateman’s asseveration from Bobbio and Bovero’s statements.
