Natural equality, artificial inequality? Hobbes, the problem of egalitarianism and the fictions of 'as if'
This paper will seek to question the place of natural equality in the work of Hobbes. To do this, first we will try to trace the characterizations Hobbes overlooking equality and inequality within the state of nature to analyze the complex convolutions that intertwines his approach.

Para ello, primero se tratará de rastrear las caracterizaciones que hace Hobbes con vistas a la igualdad y la desigualdad dentro del estado de naturaleza para analizar las complejas sinuosidades que entrelaza su planteo. Así, en una sección posterior, se buscará explicar que dichas oscilaciones no le permiten a Hobbes justificar cabalmente la igualdad natural entre los individuos, aunque esto necesariamente deba ser un requisito para su planteo teórico. Por ello, y para solucionar este dilema entre necesidad y falta de justificación adecuada, señalaremos que el orden civil se establece tras simular la ficción necesaria de la igualdad natural haciendo “como si” la misma efectivamente existiera. Finalmente, el trabajo se cerrará con algunas conclusiones al respecto.
