Book excerpt: Mankind is centuries overdue for a sharp mental and moral shakeup! Men and women know nothing but servility, slavery, and unceasing tyranny. What else can there be but bloodshed when society authorises a state to make laws enforceable by gunpowder, or when government rules moralitydespite that rule is immoral by nature. Natural law answers those questions, but who knows what natural law is? Kenneth E Bartles Law From Within reveals the Principles of Natural law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowing the Natural Law traces the thought of Aquinas from an understanding of human nature to a knowledge of the human good, from there to an account of ought-statements, and finally to choice, which issues in human actions. The much discussed article on the precepts of the natural law (I-II, 94, 2) provides the framework for a natural law rooted in human nature and in speculative knowledge. Practical knowledge is itself threefold: potentially practical knowledge, virtually practical knowledge, and fully practical knowledge.

Download or read book Contemporary Perspectives on Natural Law written by Dr Ana Marta González and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resorting to natural law is one way of conveying the philosophical conviction that moral norms are not merely conventional rules. Accordingly, the notion of natural law has a clear metaphysical dimension, since it involves the recognition that human beings do not conceive themselves as sheer products of society and history. And yet, if natural law is to be considered the fundamental law of practical reason, it must show also some intrinsic relationship to history and positive law. The essays in this book examine this tension between the metaphysical and the practical and how the philosophical elaboration of natural law presents this notion as a "limiting-concept", between metaphysics and ethics, between the mutable and the immutable; between is and ought, and, in connection with the latter, even the tension between politics and eschatology as a double horizon of ethics. This book, contributed to by scholars from Europe and America, is a major contribution to the renewed interest in natural law. It provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of natural law, both from a historical and a systematic point of view. It ranges from the mediaeval synthesis of Aquinas through the early modern elaborations of natural law, up to current discussions on the very possibility and practical relevance of natural law theory for the contemporary mind.

Book excerpt: An introduction to Natural Law Gregory LaPoint, a business owner, professor, and father, was born in Los Angeles and raised in Southern California. He has lived most of his adult life in Colorado where his journey to explore the natural law has continued. He graduated from Regis College with a bachelors degree in philosophy, received a graduate certificate in civics from the University of San Diego, received his first masters degree in theology, awarded summa cum laude, from Holy Apostles College and Seminary, and a second masters degree from Holy Apostles in philosophy, cum laude, and he is presently a doctoral candidate. The foundation for natural law in his life began as young man. An awakening to common sense realism started with early family experiences and continued through life lessons. Jack Peiffer, his maternal grandfather, had nurtured in him a pragmatic orientation with such advice as "keep your nose to the grindstone," and instilled an abiding quest for this common sense realism. Fortuitously, he spent his formative years at a boarding school called St. Michaels Preparatory High School in Silverado, California operated by the Norbertine Fathers of St. Michaels Abbey. His instructors impressed upon him an appreciation for living according to the natural law. It was at St Michaels that the dedication to natural law was instilled into the fabric of his disposition. Later, he was formally introduced to the subject of philosophy. With this early training, business experience, education and equipped with the tools of inferential realism, Gregory eventually committed his life and resources to advance the natural law. His credentials for writing this book on natural law have emerged primarily from a steadfast commitment to observation and reasoning that are based in metaphysical realism. Throughout his thirty years as a business owner, Gregory consistently applied natural law to his business practices and life activities. He studied natural law both formally and informally. He believes that it is not necessary to have a college degree, nor be a college professor, nor be an author to understand and practice natural law. While he does consider his advanced graduate degrees in both philosophy and theology positive sources of information, these degrees remain of secondary importance. Essentially it is the metaphysics of realism combined with systematic inquiry that leads to the further understanding of natural law, as well as to the adversaries of natural law. It has become evident to him that learning and growing in knowledge of natural law is the responsibility of every human being wherever they may reside or whatever their profession or calling might be. He recognizes natural law to be the quintessential and indispensable governing human science for all cultures and human institutions. Gregory LaPoint founded the Center for Natural Law to raise awareness of natural law ethics in our world today. He lives in Denver, Colorado, where his daughter also lives. When he is not teaching or giving natural law seminars, he enjoys golfing and reading.

Download or read book Natural Law and Justice written by Lloyd L. Weinreb and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Human beings are a part of nature and apart from it." The argument of Natural Law and Justice is that the philosophy of natural law and contemporary theories about the nature of justice are both efforts to make sense of the fundamental paradox of human experience: individual freedom and responsibility in a causally determined universe. Professor Weinreb restores the original understanding of natural law as a philosophy about the place of humankind in nature. He traces the natural law tradition from its origins in Greek speculation through its classic Christian statement by Thomas Aquinas. He goes on to show how the social contract theorists adapted the idea of natural law to provide for political obligation in civil society and how the idea was transformed in Kant's account of human freedom. He brings the historical narrative down to the present with a discussion of the contemporary debate between natural law and legal positivism, including particularly the natural law theories of Finnis, Richards, and Dworkin. Professor Weinreb then adopts the approach of modern political philosophy to develop the idea of justice as a union of the distinct ideas of desert and entitlement. He shows liberty and equality to be the political analogues of desert and entitlement and both pairs to be the normative equivalents of freedom and cause. In this part of the book, Weinreb considers the theories of justice of Rawls and Nozick as well as the communitarian theory of Maclntyre and Sandel. The conclusion brings the debates about natural law and justice together, as parallel efforts to understand the human condition. This original contribution to legal philosophy will be especially appreciated by scholars, teachers, and students in the fields of political philosophy, legal philosophy, and the law generally.
