Este trabajo examina la influencia de la Ilustración en la obra de Simón Rodríguez, especialmente en su pensamiento republicano. Para él, la república en la América del Sur de comienzos del siglo XIX comprende dos fases para su consolidación. La primera de ellas se ha cumplido: la independencia, un logro militar; la segunda, la libertad, está por desarrollarse. Esta segunda fase, considera, sólo podrá concretarse si se educa al ciudadano, y para ello es indispensable la educación republicana. Así, este filósofo considera que la mejor opción para la fundación de la república es la aplicación de algunas ideas políticas, sociales y educativas de la Ilustración. ; This paper examines the influence of the Enlightenment on the work of Simon Rodriguez, especially in his republican thought. According to him, in the early nineteenth century of South America the consolidation of republic is built up in two stages. The first one has been accomplished: independence, a military achievement; the second, freedom, that was about to unfold. On this second phase, he believes that it can only be carried out if citizen is taught, and for tackling that out republican education is indispensable. Thus, this philosopher considers the best option for the republic foundation goes through the application of some of the Enlightenment political, social and educational ideas.

In Sociedades americanas en 1828, Simón Rodríguez describes and supports a republican attempt as a new way of government. Aware of the problem his project meant and warned against the accusation of being an utopian, he claims that the social republic would not be an utopia, as Tomas Moro imagined about, but the opportunity for the republics in South America to be the good place for an authentic social life. On the grounds that are described above, this paper examines analytically and critically the relationships between republic and utopia in Simon Rodriguez. ; En Sociedades americanas en 1828 Simón Rodríguez argumenta a favor de un ensayo republicano y de una nueva forma de gobierno. Consciente de lo problemático de su proyecto y prevenido contra la acusación de ser un utópico, advierte que la república social no sería una utopía, como la imaginó Tomás Moro, sino la oportunidad para que las repúblicas de América del Sur sean el buen lugar para que acontezca la auténtica vida social. En virtud de lo anterior, este ensayo examina con espíritu analítico y crítico las relaciones entre república y utopía en Simón Rodríguez

The present work is developed such as the following way: in first place, we analyze and discuss a series of passages that allow the approximation to the notion of ethics or morality in Simón Rodríguez, and its relationship with notions as will, free arbitrament, freedom, reason and nature. Secondly, we study the concepts of habit and custom and we elucidate the place they occupy in every mankind ethical conformation or social ethical conformation, theirs importance in the politics and specifically in the republican Rodríguez sample. The third point approaches us to the study of what the virtue and the social virtues are, and theirs relationship with the political and the social notion. Finally the work is closed with a fed up relevant point in the Rodriguez political and social philosophy, namely: the theoretical relationship between ethics and education, reflected on the political thing and called by Rodriguez ´the lights and the social virtues´.
