Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of Ethics: A Syllabus The edition of my Outlines of Ethics having been exhausted, I have prepared the following pages, primarily for the use and guidance of my own students. The demand for the former book seems, however, to justify the belief that, amid the prevalence of pathological and moralistic ethics, there is room for a theory which conceives of conduct as the normal and free living of life as it is. The present pages, it may be added, are in no sense a second edition of the previous book. On the contrary, they undertake a thorough psychological examination of the process of active experience, and a derivation from this analysis of the chief ethical types and crises - a task, so far as I know, not previously attempted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Syllabus of Ethics The present sketch is an outgrowth of work done during several years with my classes in the St. Louis High School. In its present form, however, the sketch has been prepared directly with a view to meeting the needs of the St. Louis Society of Pedagogy in so far as one of the Sections of that Society is organized for the express purpose of studying Ethics. My aim has been first of all to furnish a guide to what I cannot but regard as a specially fruitful method in the study of Ethics, rather than to present an elaborate scheme of the science of Ethics as such. On the other hand, as in my Syllabus of Psychology, so here, I have omitted details and have sought thus to bring into so much the clearer view the essential aspects of the subject, and have attempted also to indicate the vital relation which those aspects sustain one to another in the organic unity of human life.

Download or read book The Study of Ethics written by John Dewey and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the beginning of CHAPTER I.—NATURE OF ETHICAL THEORY. Section I.—Subject-matter Of Ethics: SUBJECT-MATTER of ethical theory is judgment concerning the value of conduct. Three stages. (1) Practical encouragement and discouragement of certain acts. Reward and punishment primary forms of such judgments. Next stage, urging and restraint through speech. (See Plato, Protagoras, 325-26.) Third stage, reflective judgment as to reason for such acts. Ethical theory is simply (1) a systematic judgment of value. The way is prepared for this through the fact that primitive judgments relate not to isolated acts, but to habits of action, and to the types of character which are disposed to induce those habits. Necessary spontaneous generalizations. Codes, customary and legislative. Demand for more systematic generalization arises when, through an extension of the area of life, former habits begin to conflict with each other. Illustrated by Athenian life; by Roman; by modern since the Renascence. Ethical theory is thus (2) a critical judgment upon conduct. Not systematic in the sense that it simply catalogues previous judgments, but in the sense that it attempts to reconstruct them on the basis of a deeper principle. (See Sec. 2.) It is a matter of indifference whether we say ethical theory attempts to systematize (in the above sense) judgments about the value of conduct, or attempts to systematize conduct itself. Every act (consciously performed) is a judgment of value: the act done is done because it is thought to be worth while, or valuable. Thus a man's real (as distinct from his nominal or symbolic) theory of conduct can be told only from his acts. Conversely, every judgment about conduct is itself an act; it marks a practical and not simply a theoretical attitude. That is, it does not lie outside of the matter judged (conduct), but constitutes a part of its development; conduct is different after, and because of the judgment. Ill. in education, where the main point is not so much to get certain acts done, as to induce in the child certain ways of valuing acts, from which the performance of the specific deeds will naturally follow. That is, the best education aims to train conscience. Ethical theory is only a more conscious and more generalized phase of conduct. Analogy with place of theory in modern (experimental) science. A theory not a fixed or abstract truth, but a standpoint and method for some activity. It is in this (the activity as directed by theory) that the value of the theory comes out and is tested. (See Sec. 3.)….

Download or read book Dewey and Power written by Randy Hewitt and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dewey and Power develops out of criticism that John Dewey’s work lacks a sufficient concept of power, thus rendering his faith in an amelioristic sense of experience and a democratic ideal untenable. According to philosopher Cornel West, Dewey gives ameliorism its most mature social, political, and ethical justification. Alan Ryan suggests that Dewey represented “thinking America” at its best. Dewey’s critics maintain, however, that this best is not good enough. If their criticism of Dewey goes unchallenged, one of the most intelligent, philosophically consistent visions of ethical behavior in a world shot through with difference, risk, danger, and change becomes damned. The upshot is lost faith in the idea that the give and take of mutual reference and pooled intelligence can lead to ever wider points of contact with each other that will enrich the significance of our individual quests together. Furthermore, lost faith in ameliorism and democracy implies a lost faith in a democratic education. The purpose of Dewey and Power, therefore, is to explore the diverse critiques of his alleged insufficient concept of power and to represent Dewey’s work in a way that his critics’ claims can be evaluated. The key word here is evaluate. The book is not a simple apology for Dewey’s position on these matters. First, the book works out Dewey’s concept of power as it comes out of his understanding of the psycho-physiological makeup of the human organism. Then the analysis of power as it is psycho-physiologically interpreted is extended to incorporate Dewey’s ontological insights, especially that of the directing influence of social custom on habit. This process unveils a concept of power that includes both domination and liberation. Furthermore, the relation between Dewey’s sense of power and his faith in a democratic ideal is drawn out in explicit detail. Next, the book provides a full delineation of Dewey’s critics’ claims and measures the worth of these claims in light of what the preceding examination suggests in reference to Dewey’s idea of power. This analysis makes clear that Dewey understood that power can be as productively oppressive as it can be productively liberating. Finally, the book traces out why Dewey’s concept of power can be deployed in the construction of a critical, democratic education.
