Kant’s Search for the Supreme Principle of Morality

by Samuel J. Kerstein

0 Comments

Subject: Ethics, Kant, Immanuel - Ethics, Philosophy / Ethics & Moral Philosophy, Philosophy / History & Surveys / General,

At the core of Kant’s ethics lies the claim that if there is a supreme principle of morality, then it is not a utilitarian or Aristotelian perfectionist principle, or even a principle resembling the Ten Commandments. The only viable candidate for the supreme principle of morality is the Categorial Imperative. This book is the most detailed investigation of thie claim. It constructs a new, criterial reading of Kant’s derivation of one version of the Categorial Imperative: The Formula of Universal Law. This reading shows this derivation to be far more compelling than contemporary philosophers tend to believe. It also reveals a novel approach to deriving another version of the Categorial Imperative, the Formula of Humanity, a principle widely considered to be the most attractive Kantian candidate for the supreme principle of morality. Lucidly written and dealing with a foundational topic in the history of ethics, this book will be important not just for Kant scholars but for a broad swath of students of philosophy. Samuel Kerstein is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Maryland, College Park

Autonomy and the Challenges to Liberalism

by John Philip Christman

0 Comments

Subject: Philosophy,

In recent years the concepts of individual autonomy and political liberalism have been the subjects of intense debate, but these discussions have occurred largely within separate academic disciplines. Autonomy and the Challenges to Liberalism contains essays devoted to foundational questions regarding both the notion of the autonomous self and the nature and justification of liberalism. Written by leading figures in moral, legal and political theory, the volume covers inter alia the following topics: the nature of the self and its relation to autonomy, the social dimensions of autonomy and the political dynamics of respect and recognition, and the concept of autonomy underlying the principles of liberalism.

Making Moral Decisions

by Paul T. Jersild

0 Comments

Subject: Christian Ethics/ Lutheran Authors, Decision Making/ Moral And Ethical Aspects, Social Ethics,

The question “What am I to do?” needs the balance and completion of “What are we to do?” With clarity and insight Jersild addresses the particular need of our time: a great awareness of our interdependence as a world community. The relationship between private and public morality is clarified by exploring such questions as: “What prompts Christians to disagree on moral issues?” “Is there a Christian morality?” and “How are convictions related to decisions?” Using critical incidents or cases to illustrate ethical points, Jersild examines such contemporary issues as euthanasia, employment and one’s sense of vocation, homosexuality, and more.
