RESUMEN
En este trabajo abordo el problema de la fundamentación teórica de la noción de normatividad natural desde una perspectiva naturalista. Presento el debate actual sobre las funciones biológicas en filosofía de la biología, en el cual pueden encontrarse algunos intentos de fundamentar las normas naturales a través del concepto de función biológica. Sostengo que el enfoque predominante etiológico-evolutivo no es capaz justificar la adscripción de normas naturales en los sistemas biológicos y propongo que la nueva perspectiva organizacional está en la mejor posición para ofrecer un tratamiento naturalista de la teleología biológica y de la normatividad natural.

ABSTRACT
In this paper I consider the problem of the theoretical grounding of the notion of natural normativity for the naturalistic perspective. I present the current debate on biological functions in philosophy of biology in which there are some attempts to ground natural norms through the notion of biological function. I argue that the mainstream account, i.e. the evolutive-etiological approach, is not able to ground the ascription of natural norms in biological systems and I defend that the new organizational approach is in the best position to offer an adequate naturalistic account for biological teleology and natural normativity.
