espanolEl uso de experimentos mentales tradicionalmente ha sido uno de los principales recursos metodologicos en el debate sobre la identidad personal. Sin embargo, en las ultimas decadas han recibido un creciente numero de criticas. Esto ha provocado que muchos filosofos interesados en el problema de la identidad personal los hayan abandonado. Es el caso de la mayoria de los teoricos de la identidad narrativa. En este articulo comparo las criticas de Wilkes a los experimentos mentales con las de Ricoeur. Al hacerlo, espero demostrar que sus criticas se cancelan mutuamente, al menos de manera parcial, y que los teoricos de la identidad narrativa estan comprometidos a aceptar el uso de experimentos mentales. EnglishThe use of thought experiments has been one of the main methodological resources in the debate on personal identity. However, over the past decades, there has been an increasing amount of criticism against them. This has caused that many philosophers interested in the problem of personal identity have abandoned this methodo-logy. This is the case with most of narrative identity theorists. In the present paper, I compare Wilkesʼ criticisms against thought experiments with Ricoeurʼs. In doing so, I hope to show that they partially cancel each other, and that narrative identity theorists are committed to accept the use of thought experiments.
