Book excerpt: La première édition du présent ouvrage a paru il y a dix ans sous le titre de Dictionnaire de Morale. Entre-temps le débat éthique a subi de profondes modifications. Nombreux sont les facteurs de cette transformation. Alors que certains sont internes, touchent à la philosophie et aux déplacements qui se sont produits dans le discours philosophique lui-même, d'autres sont relatifs aux transformations éthiques et politiques que connaît le monde vécu et qui ont entraîné une sensibilité croissante aux problèmes éthiques dans la vie publique. On entend çà et là des voix qui veulent bien plaider pour une neutralisation morale, mais notre culture commence à prendre de plus en plus conscience que la longue série d'innovations que nous appelons "modernisation" comporte des conséquences désastreuses. Les options multiples et nouvelles que la modernité nous offre invitent à une évaluation morale, à une morale qui apparaît comme le prix à payer pour la modernité. Puisque cette perspective éthique est loin d'être une donne non-controversée, l'évaluation des effets de la modernité se fait sous la forme de discours éthiques qui s'étendent jusqu'aux fondements ultimes de la moralité elle-même.¦

Download or read book Les mots pour penser l thique written by Eirick Prairat and published by Presses Universitaires de Nancy. This book was released on 2014 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce petit livre est une manière originale de découvrir l'éthique et les différents chantiers de la philosophie morale. Ce n'est pas un discours organisé selon un plan linéaire et démonstratif mais une suite de définitions et d'éclairages qui s'appellent les uns les autres. Il n'a pas vocation à présenter de manière synthétique les pensées morales des grands noms de la philosophie mais entend préciser des notions ; il peut, au détour d'une entrée, clarifier une question comme celle de la vertu chez Aristote, énoncer les grandes lignes d'une perspective comme celle du minimalisme millien ou encore expliciter les différentes façons de concevoir les rapports entre vie bonne et vie morale. Ce lexique, car il s'agit bien d'un lexique, revendique une entrée par les notions et les concepts. Tout lexique procède par recoupements et jeux de renvois. En ce sens, c'est une aide bien plus utile qu'on ne le pense pour s'aventurer dans un nouveau domaine ou approfondir un thème. Pourquoi avoir retenu cent notions et pas une de plus ? Il n'y pas, reconnaissons-le, de réponse décisive à une telle question. 100 a tout simplement le mérite de la rondeur, il donne aussi le sentiment - mais ce n'est qu'un sentiment - d'avoir fait momentanément le tour d'une question.

Download or read book Le ons d thique written by Immanuel Kant and published by LGF/Le Livre de Poche. This book was released on 1997 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les cours de Kant enseignaient la simplicité dans la pensée et le naturel dans la vie. Il avait l'entrain d'un jeune homme. Son front découvert, construit pour la pensée, était le siège d'une sérénité indestructible. Il recourait à son gré à la plaisanterie, à l'esprit, à la fantaisie imprévisible. Son cours ex cathedra était comme la plus passionnante des conversations. Rien de digne d'être connu ne lui était indifférent ; Il en revenait toujours à la connaissance sans entraves de la nature et à la valeur morale de l'homme. Il obligeait autrui à penser par lui-même. Tout despotisme lui était étranger. Johann Gottfried Herder. Les Leçons d'éthique furent prononcées entre 1775 et 1780. Dès cette période, comme on le constate dans les pages de ce livre, sont mis en place les thèses et les thèmes qui, quelques années plus tard, figureront dans les Fondements de la métaphysique des mœurs (1785), notamment, la distinction entre pratique et libre conduite, et l'installation de la question du Bien au cœur des préoccupations de Kant. On découvre aussi que le philosophe ne pouvait, abordant l'éthique, éviter de larges développements sur la Religion et sur la notion de devoir envers soi et envers autrui. Les Leçons d'éthique sont essentielles pour comprendre la philosophie morale de Kant. Traduction, notes et commentaires par Luc Langlois.

Transliterations of terms appear before the representations in foreign characters. This is an encyclopedic dictionary of close to 400 important philosophical, literary, and political terms and concepts that defy easy—or any—translation from one language and culture to another. Drawn from more than a dozen languages, terms such as Dasein (German), pravda (Russian), saudade (Portuguese), and stato (Italian) are thoroughly examined in all their cross-linguistic and cross-cultural complexities. Spanning the classical, medieval, early modern, modern, and contemporary periods, these are terms that influence thinking across the humanities. The entries, written by more than 150 distinguished scholars, describe the origins and meanings of each term, the history and context of its usage, its translations into other languages, and its use in notable texts. The dictionary also includes essays on the special characteristics of particular languages--English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Originally published in French, this one-of-a-kind reference work is now available in English for the first time, with new contributions from Judith Butler, Daniel Heller-Roazen, Ben Kafka, Kevin McLaughlin, Kenneth Reinhard, Stella Sandford, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Jane Tylus, Anthony Vidler, Susan Wolfson, Robert J.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume tackles the burden of judgment and the challenges of ethical disagreements, organizes the cohabitation of scientific and ethical argumentations in such a way they find their appropriate place in the political decision. It imagines several forms of agreements and open ways of conflicts resolution very different compared with ones of the majority of political philosophers and political scientists that are macro-social and general. It offers an original contribution to a scrutinized interpretation of the precautionary principle, as structuring the decision in interdisciplinary contexts, to make sure to arrive this time to the “Best of the Worlds”.

Download or read book Ethique written by Baruch de Spinoza and published by éditions de l’éclat. This book was released on 2005 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'Ethique de Spinoza, parue posthume en 1677, ouvre la philosophie moderne. Elle se dresse avec " la fermeté d'un temple dans un paysage inhabité ". Son unité géométrique heurte le morcellement du monde contemporain, mais elle accompagne tous ceux qui s'aventurent sur la voie du " bien agir ". Elle fonde notre être pour le monde. S'est imposée alors une traduction nouvelle, restituant la rigueur lexicale et l'élégance du style. Un important appareil critique justifie les choix terminologiques et commente pas à pas l'ordre des propositions, des définitions et des axiomes. Ainsi redécouverte en sa lettre même, l'Ethique indique à nouveau le chemin d'une vie vertueuse qui serait sa propre récompense et sa joie véritable. En ces temps incertain, elle guide les égarés.
Download or read book Ethics and the politics of food written by Matthias Kaiser and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-08-28 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Food has emerged as a political topic par excellence. It is increasingly involved in controversies at a transnational level, in relation to issues of access, dominance, trade and control in a shared global environment. At the same time, innovations in biotechnology and animal domestication have brought ethics to the forefront of food debates. Thus, we live in an era when the ethics and the politics of food must come together. This book addresses the ethics and the politics of food from a broad range of academic disciplines, including sociology, philosophy, nutrition, anthropology, ethics, political science and history. The chapters expose novel problem areas, and suggest guidelines for approaching them. Topics range from fundamental issues in philosophy to sustainability, from consumer trust in food to ethical toolkits. Transparency, power and responsibility are key concerns, and special attention is given to animal welfare, emerging technologies in food production and marine domestication. Together, the chapters represent a wide range of academic responses to the fundamental dilemmas posed by food production and food consumption in the contemporary world."
Download or read book Spirituality in the Biomedical World written by Guy Jobin and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need to take the spiritual experience during illness into account is part of a broader trend in Western societies—a fascination with the practical uses of spirituality and its contribution to individual wellbeing, whether through a religious or a humanist tradition. This understanding of spirituality differs from traditional views embedded in religious traditions. This book takes a critical point of view at the biomedical representation of the function of spirituality in care. Medicine reorders notions such as life, death, health, sickness, and spirituality. This process is called here “sapientialization”, i.e. the spiritual experience is expressed and understood under the auspices of and in terms of wisdom. This view tends to identify spirituality and ethics. I propose an alternate understanding of spirituality, grounded on its subversive power. Inspired by the work of the theologian John D. Caputo, it is critical of some problems that are associated with the sapientialization of spirituality in biomedicine, such as the medicalization of spiritual experiences or the instrumentalization of spirituality. It provides an understanding of spirituality that honours both the medical interest in it and its capacity to resist to instrumentalization.

Download or read book From Revolution to Ethics Second Edition written by Julian Bourg and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner: CHOICE Outstanding Academic Book Award, CHOICE Magazine (2008) Winner: Morris D. Forkosch Prize for the best book in intellectual history, Journal of the History of Ideas (2008) The French revolts of May 1968, the largest general strike in twentieth-century Europe, were among the most famous and colourful episodes of the twentieth century. Julian Bourg argues that during the subsequent decade the revolts led to a remarkable paradigm shift in French thought - the concern for revolution in the 1960s was transformed into a fascination with ethics. Challenging the prevalent view that the 1960s did not have any lasting effect, From Revolution to Ethics shows how intellectuals and activists turned to ethics as the touchstone for understanding interpersonal, institutional, and political dilemmas. In absorbing and scrupulously researched detail Bourg explores the developing ethical fascination as it emerged among student Maoists courting terrorism, anti-psychiatric celebrations of madness, feminists mobilizing against rape, and pundits and philosophers championing humanitarianism. From Revolution to Ethics provides a compelling picture of how May 1968 helped make ethics a compass for navigating contemporary global concerns. In a new preface for the second edition published to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the events, Bourg assessses the worldwide influence of the ethical turn, from human rights to the return of religion and the new populism.
