An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation Enriched edition. Exploring Ethics and Governance: A Utilitarian Perspective【電子書籍】[ Jeremy Bentham ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation," Jeremy Bentham meticulously explores the nexus between ethics and law, laying the groundwork for utilitarian philosophy. Written in a clear and accessible style, this seminal work delineates the principles of utility, arguing that the best actions are those that maximize happiness. Bentham employs a systematic approach, rooted in empirical observation and rational deduction, making his arguments both compelling and rigorous. The historical context of the Enlightenment imbues the text with a spirit of progressivism, challenging prevailing notions of morality and legalism while advocating for reforms based on the greatest good for the greatest number. Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832), a prominent philosopher and legal theorist, is often heralded as the father of modern utilitarianism. His visionary pursuits manifest not only in ethical theory but also in legal reform, prison design, and social justice. Bentham's commitment to humanitarian causes and the critique of traditional punitive measures reflect his deep-seated belief in rational thought as a tool for societal improvement, undoubtedly influencing his creation of this foundational text. I highly recommend this enlightening read to scholars and laypersons alike who seek to understand the interplay of moral philosophy and legal systems. Bentham's work is not just historical; it remains profoundly relevant in contemporary debates surrounding ethics, justice, and the role of government in maximizing societal welfare. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - An Author Biography reveals milestones in the author's life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Hedonism, Utilitarianism, and Consumer Behavior Exploring the Consequences of Customer Orientation【電子書籍】[ Daniele Scarpi ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book investigates the effects of utilitarian and hedonic shopping behavior, drawing on original empirical research. Consumers have been shown to shop in one of two ways: they are either mainly driven by fun, escapism, and variety, or by need and efficiency. While previous literature has focused on the drivers of hedonic or utilitarian shopping, this book explores the consequences of these styles of shopping and addresses their impact on perceived value, money spent, and willingness to return to the store in future. The author synthesizes theories from previous studies, applying them to two key retailing contexts ? intensive distribution and selective distribution. Ultimately, this book highlights the need for retailers to adopt a more consumer-based perspective to improve shopping experiences. It will prove useful for academics who want to gain a better understanding of hedonic and utilitarian behavior, and also offers practitioners with useful insights on how to target different customer segments.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Four Phases of Morals: Socrates, Aristotle, Christianity, Utilitarianism," John Stuart Blackie undertakes a comprehensive exploration of ethical thought, charting the evolution of morality from ancient philosophy to modern utilitarianism. This scholarly work deftly intertwines historical analysis with philosophical discourse, offering a critical examination of the moral frameworks established by Socrates and Aristotle, the transformative influence of Christianity, and the consequentialist perspectives introduced by utilitarian thinkers.

John Stuart Blackie, a prominent Scottish scholar of the 19th century, brings a unique blend of classical education and deep engagement with contemporary ethical issues to this text.

Blackie's writings reflect his commitment to education and the belief in cultivating a moral society through philosophical engagement. This book is essential for anyone interested in moral philosophy, offering profound insights that resonate in today's ethical discussions.

God, the Good, and Utilitarianism Perspectives on Peter Singer【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Is ethics about happiness? Aristotle thought so and for centuries Christians agreed, until utilitarianism raised worries about where this would lead. In this volume, Peter Singer, leading utilitarian philosopher and controversial defender of infanticide and euthanasia, addresses this question in conversation with Christian ethicists and secular utilitarians. Their engagement reveals surprising points of agreement and difference on questions of moral theory, the history of ethics, and current issues such as climate change, abortion, poverty and animal rights. The volume explores the advantages and pitfalls of basing morality on happiness; if ethics is teleological, is its proper aim the subjective satisfaction of preferences? Or is human flourishing found in objective goods: friendship, intellectual curiosity, meaningful labour? This volume provides a timely review of how utilitarians and Christians conceive of the good, and will be of great interest to those studying religious ethics, philosophy of religion and applied ethics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Utilitarianism A Very Short Introduction【電子書籍】[ Katarzyna de Lazari-Radek ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Utilitarianism may well be the most influential secular ethical theory in the world today. It is also one of the most controversial. It clashes, or is widely thought to clash, with many conventional moral views, and with human rights when they are seen as inviolable. Would it, for example, be right to torture a suspected terrorist in order to prevent an attack that could kill and injure a large number of innocent people? In this <em>Very Short Introduction</em> Peter Singer and Katarzyna de Lazari-Radek provide an authoritative account of the nature of utilitarianism, from its nineteenth-century origins, to its justification and its varieties. Considering how utilitarians can respond to objections that are often regarded as devastating, they explore the utilitarian answer to the question of whether torture can ever be justified. They also discuss what it is that utilitarians should seek to maximize, paying special attention to the classical utilitarian view that only pleasure or happiness is of intrinsic value. Singer and de Lazari-Radek conclude by analysing the continuing importance of utilitarianism in the world, indicating how it is a force for new thinking on contemporary moral challenges like global poverty, the treatment of animals, climate change, reducing the risk of human extinction, end-of-life decisions for terminally-ill patients, and the shift towards assessing the success of government policies in terms of their impact on happiness. ABOUT THE SERIES: The <em>Very Short Introductions</em> series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

History and Historiography in Classical Utilitarianism, 1800?1865【電子書籍】[ Callum Barrell ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This first comprehensive account of the utilitarians' historical thought intellectually resituates their conceptions of philosophy and politics, at a time when the past acquired new significances as both a means and object of study. Drawing on published and unpublished writings - and set against the intellectual backdrops of Scottish philosophical history, German and French historicism, romanticism, positivism, and the rise of social science and scientific history - Callum Barrell recovers the depth with which Jeremy Bentham, James Mill, George Grote, and John Stuart Mill thought about history as a site of philosophy and politics. He argues that the utilitarians, contrary to their reputations as ahistorical and even antihistorical thinkers, developed complex frameworks in which to learn from and negotiate the past, inviting us to rethink the foundations of their ideas, as well as their place in - and relationship to - nineteenth-century philosophy and political thought.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Four Phases of Morals: Socrates, Aristotle, Christianity, Utilitarianism Enriched edition. Exploring Evolution of Ethical Thought【電子書籍】[ John Stuart Blackie ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Four Phases of Morals: Socrates, Aristotle, Christianity, Utilitarianism," John Stuart Blackie embarks on a profound exploration of moral philosophy through four pivotal lenses. Each phase represents a distinct moral framework: the Socratic quest for virtue, Aristotle's teleological ethics, the transformative ethos of Christianity, and the pragmatic principles of Utilitarianism. Blackie's prose is both scholarly and accessible, weaving intricate arguments with poignant reflections on the evolution of moral thought. The text is not only a homage to these intellectual giants but also a timely discourse on the relevance of their teachings in contemporary ethical debates. John Stuart Blackie (1809-1895), a Scottish scholar and philosopher, was profoundly influenced by the classical tradition and sought to synthesize ancient wisdom with modern philosophical inquiry. Educated at both Edinburgh and G?ttingen, Blackie's academic background provides him with the tools to dissect complex moral ideologies while promoting a deep understanding of their historical contexts. His multi-faceted career as a poet, philosopher, and linguist shaped his perspective, allowing him to navigate through the nuances of moral philosophy effectively. For readers interested in the foundations of ethical discourse, "Four Phases of Morals" is an indispensable resource. Blackie's insightful analysis prompts us to reflect on our own moral compass, drawing connections between ancient wisdom and modern-day dilemmas. This book is essential for scholars, students, and anyone looking to cultivate a richer understanding of moral philosophy. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Immanuel Kant and Utilitarian Ethics【電子書籍】[ Samuel Hollander ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Adopting a view of utilitarian ethics in which motivation in the public interest takes on greater weight than is generally appreciated, this book explores the extent to which the philosophy of Immanuel Kant is consistent with this nuanced version of utilitarianism.</p> <p>Kant’s requirement that full ethical merit needs an agent to act purely ‘from duty’ to forward ‘the universal end of happiness’ rather than from a personal inclination to achieve that end clearly distinguishes his position from the version of utilitarian ethics adopted here. But this book also demonstrates, by reference to his formal ethical works and his lectures on ethics and anthropology, Kant’s approval of a secondary category of conduct ? conduct ‘in conformity with’ duty ? entailing other-regarding or ‘sympathetic’ motivation to advance general happiness, differing from the utilitarian position only in its meriting a qualified degree of ethical credit. After comparing Kant with eighteenth-century utilitarian writers from Locke to Smith, and also with Bentham and Malthus, the book evaluates reactions to Kant by J.S. Mill and Karl Marx and proposes Michel de Montaigne (1533?1592) as a ‘precursor’ for maintaining a ‘Kantian’ doctrine of conduct ‘from duty’ and for other shared features. In terms of public policy, the work demonstrates Kant’s justification of poor relief and reduced inequality, his proposal for a state education plan and his opposition to paternalism.</p> <p>This book provides essential reading for academic specialists and students concerned with the interface of political economy and ethics, as well as the history of economic thought, history of political thought and intellectual history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>BLACK NERD HAMMER A black nerd, a rare sight to see, In a world where ignorance is king. The books and screens are his company, while others shun what knowledge can bring. His skin is as dark as night, but behind his glasses, a mind that shines bright. Pushing the boundaries of what’s deemed cool, His uniqueness, a powerful tool. His passion for tech and all that’s new, May seem odd to those outside his crew. He loves to learn and loves to explore. His curiosity an unquenchable lure. Many may judge him for his appearance, for not conforming to societal clearance. But he proudly stands, unapologetically black. In a world where nerds are never meant to have a knack. So let us cherish the black nerd among us, for he represents hope, strength and trust. A reminder that brilliance transcends race, and that knowledge is a universal embrace. With grip of steel and arm so strong, the hammer wielder works all day long. With sweat upon their brow, they toil away, building and shaping, came what may. Their hammer strikes the metal true, forging pieces both old and new. They pound and shape with skill and care, Creating works beyond compare. The hammer wielder’s hands are rough, from many days of working tough. But their passion never fades away, As they shape the pieces they display. Every hit of the hammer is a beat, that sings of grace and skill so sweet. With every blow a new creation, Born of hard work and dedication. The hammer wielder is an artist bold, whose work of art will never grow old. For the pieces that create with ease, are masterpieces that will always please.

James Mill's Utilitarian Logic and Politics【電子書籍】[ Antis Loizides ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>James Mill’s (1773?1836) role in the development of utilitarian thought in the nineteenth century has been overshadowed both by John Stuart Mill (1806?1873) and by Jeremy Bentham (1748?1832). Of the three, the elder Mill is considered to be the least original and with the least important, if any, contributions to utilitarian theory. True as this statement may be, even those who have tried to challenge some of its aspects take the common portrayal of Mill ? "the rationalist, the maker of syllogisms, the geometrician" ? as given. This book does not. Studying James Mill’s background has surprising results with reference to influences outside the Benthamite tradition as well as unexpected implications for his contributions to debates of his time. The book focuses on his political ideas, the ways in which he communicated them and the ways in which he formed them in an attempt to reveal a portrait of Mill unencumbered from the legacy of Thomas Babington Macaulay’s (1800?1859) brilliant essay "Utilitarian Logic and Politics".</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Its focus reflects the ways that similar pressures today have renewed the question of how to make the case for the public value of the humanities. The good news is that in many ways, this self-reflexive challenge is precisely what the humanities have always done best: highlight the nature and the force of the narratives that have helped to define how we understand our society ? its various pasts and its possible futures ? and to suggest the larger contexts within which these issues must ultimately be situated.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Empowerment and Interconnectivity Toward a Feminist History of Utilitarian Philosophy【電子書籍】[ Catherine Villanueva Gardner ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Feminist history of philosophy has successfully focused thus far on canon revision, canon critique, and the recovery of neglected or forgotten women philosophers. However, the methodology remains underexplored, and it seems timely to ask larger questions about how the history of philosophy is to be done and whether there is, or needs to be, a specifically feminist approach to the history of philosophy. In <em>Empowerment and Interconnectivity</em>, Catherine Gardner examines the philosophy of three neglected women philosophers, Catharine Beecher, Frances Wright, and Anna Doyle Wheeler, all of whom were British or American utilitarian philosophers of one stripe or another. Gardner’s focus in this book is less on accounting for the neglect or disappearance of these women philosophers and more on those methodological (or epistemological) questions we need to ask in order to recover their philosophy and categorize it as feminist.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

An Analysis of John Stuart Mills's Utilitarianism【電子書籍】[ Tom Patrick ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>John Stuart Mill’s 1861 <em>Utilitarianism</em> remains one of the most widely known and influential works of moral philosophy ever written. It is also a model of critical thinking ? one in which Mill’s reasoning and interpretation skills are used to create a well-structured, watertight, persuasive argument for his position on core questions in ethics.<br /> The central question, for Mill, was to decide upon a valid definition of right and wrong, and reason out his moral theory from there. Laying down valid, defensible definitions is a crucial aspect of good interpretative thinking, and Mill gets his in as early as possible. Actions are good, he suggests, if they increase happiness, and bad if they reduce happiness.</p> <p>But, vitally, it is not our own happiness that matters, but the total happiness of all those affected by a given action. From this interpretation of moral good, Mill is able to systematically reason out a coherent framework for calculating and judging overall happiness, while considering different kinds and qualities of happiness.<br /> Like any good example of reasoning, Mill’s argument consistently takes account of possible objections, building them into the structure of the book in order to acknowledge and counter them as he goes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Utilitarianism (Illustrated Edition)【電子書籍】[ John Stuart Mill ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806 8 May 1873) was a British philosopher, economist and civil servant. An influential contributor to social theory, political theory, and political economy, his conception of liberty justified the freedom of the individual in opposition to unlimited state control. He was a proponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by Jeremy Bentham, although his conception of it was very different from Bentham's. Hoping to remedy the problems found in an inductive approach to science, such as confirmation bias, he clearly set forth the premises of falsification as the key component in the scientific method. Mill was also a Member of Parliament and an important figure in liberal political philosophy. Mill was also one of the earliest writers on the topic of minorities rights. In 1850, Mill sent an anonymous letter (which came to be known under the title "The Negro Question"), in rebuttal to Thomas Carlyle's anonymous letter to Fraser's Magazine for Town and Country. Carlyle had defended slavery on grounds of genetic inferiority and claimed that the West Indies development was due to British ingenuity alone and dismissed any notion that there was a debtedness to imported slaves for building the economy there. Mill's rebuttal and references to the ongoing debate in the U.S. at the time regarding slavery were emphatic and eloquent. Mills Utilitarianism is a philosophical defense of utilitarianism in ethics. The essay first appeared as a series of three articles published in Fraser's Magazine in 1861; the articles were collected and reprinted as a single book in 1863. It went through four editions during Mill's lifetime with minor additions and revisions. Although Mill includes discussions of utilitarian ethical principles in other works such as On Liberty and The Subjection of Women, Utilitarianism contains Mill's only major discussion of the fundamental grounds for utilitarian ethical theory. This edition of Mills famous book is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and illustrations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><em>Utilitarianism</em> is a classic exposition and defense of utilitarianism in ethics. Written by political economist and civil servant John Stuart Mill, the essay first appeared as a series of three articles published in <em>Fraser's Magazine</em> in 1861; the articles were collected and reprinted as a single book in 1863. The essay provides support for the value of utilitarianism as a moral theory and defends it against a wide range of criticisms and misunderstandings. Though heavily criticized both in Mill's lifetime and in the years since, <em>Utilitarianism</em> has been credited with popularizing utilitarian ethics and is considered the most influential philosophical articulation of a liberal humanistic morality that was produced in the nineteenth century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Should We Maximize Utility? A Debate about Utilitarianism【電子書籍】[ Ben Bramble ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Utilitarianism directs us to act in ways that impartially maximize welfare or utility or at least aim to do that. Some find this view highly compelling. Others object that it has intuitively repugnant results, that it condones evildoing and injustice, that it is excessively imposing and controlling, that it is alienating, and that it fails to offer meaningful, practical guidance.</p> <p>In this ‘Little Debates’ volume, James Lenman argues that utilitarianism’s directive to improve the whole universe on a cosmic time scale is apt to lead it down a path of imperious moral overreach. The project, he further maintains, ultimately shipwrecks on an extreme lack of epistemic humility in framing the determinants of what is morally right and wrong beyond the limits of what we can ever hope to know. Utilitarianism thus leaves us morally clueless. In contrast, Ben Bramble seeks to develop and defend an original form of utilitarianism, less vulnerable than other, more familiar versions to a number of important objections, including those raised by Lenman. He aims to avoid such unappealing results by presenting it as a claim about what we have the most reason to do, and not as a theory of right action, which Bramble urges we should understand quite differently by reference to what would motivate virtuous people.</p> <p>Key Features:</p> <ul> <li>Focuses on one of the dominant ethical theories debated by moral philosophers today</li> <li>Clearly written, free of jargon and technicality, and highly accessible to students</li> <li>Addresses questions of great importance to anyone wishing to grow in understanding of human moral life</li> <li>Provides a glossary of key terms highlighted in bold as well as a bibliography for further reading</li> <li>Important issues discussed include: welfare; value; right action; virtue; impartiality; obligations to non-human animals; the badness of human extinction; the happiness of future people; the ethics of climate change; the long term future; and the moral significance of the limits to what we can know.</li> </ul>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>John Stuart Mill's book Utilitarianism is a classic exposition and defence of utilitarianism in ethics. The essay first appeared as a series of three articles published in Fraser's Magazine in 1861; the articles were collected and reprinted as a single book in 1863. Mill's aim in the book is to explain what utilitarianism is, to show why it is the best theory of ethics, and to defend it against a wide range of criticisms and misunderstandings. Though heavily criticized both in Mill's lifetime and in the years since, Utilitarianism did a great deal to popularize utilitarian ethics and has been considered "the most influential philosophical articulation of a liberal humanistic morality that was produced in the nineteenth century."</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Economic Justice and Liberty The Social Philosophy in John Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism【電子書籍】[ Huei-chun Su ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This new book reopens the debate on theories of justice between utilitarian theorists and scholars from other camps. John Rawls’ 1971 publication of A Theory of Justice put forward a devastating challenge to the long-established dominance of utilitarianism within political and moral philosophy, and until now no satisfactory and comprehensive utilitarian reply has yet been put forward.</p> <p>By expounding John Stuart Mill’s system of knowledge and by reconstructing his utilitarianism, Huei-chun Su offers a fresh and comprehensive analysis of Mill’s moral philosophy and sheds new light on the reconciliation of Mill’s idea of justice with both his utilitarianism and his theory of liberty. More than a study of Mill, this book uses a systematic framework to draw a comparison between Mill’s theory of justice and those of John Rawls, Amartya Sen, and Friedrich von Hayek. It hence establishes common ground between different schools of thought in the fields of economics and philosophy, and enables more effective dialogue.</p> <p>This book will be indispensable both to those interested in Mill’s moral philosophy and to those seeking a solid theoretical basis for analyzing the idea of justice, as well as to anyone with an interest with the history of economics, economic philosophy and the history of economic thought more generally.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
