Dynamism of human action as a key to understanding virtue education

This article presents the dynamism of human action as a key to understanding virtue education. The dynamism of human action refers to the intentional and socially situated exercise of individuals, in particular how the faculties of the human being as agent are involved. Our proposal is framed within a neotomistic anthropological paradigm that assumes the action of the Holy Spirit in synergy with human freedom. We also present some orientations for the pedagogy of virtues based on the explanation of the dynamism of human action. This paper is an interdisciplinary work that includes elements of philosophy, theology, psychology and pedagogy.
