Resumen

La idea de que la comunidad política se extiende en el tiempo se encuentra en tensión con presupuestos usuales acerca de la topología del tiempo y la dirección temporal de la causalidad. La tensión puede ser resuelta si se adoptan tres tesis: 1) las normas jurídicas –en especial la Constitución– son la expresión de expectativas o preferencias colectivas futuras de los ciudadanos del pasado; 2) existen algunos objetos que no están en el presente; 3) el valor que tiene la vida que alguien ha vivido depende metafísicamente de la satisfacción de sus preferencias.
