An Essay on the Nature and Conduct of the Passions and Affections
Against Nature
Author: Lorraine Daston
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262353814
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
A pithy work of philosophical anthropology that explores why humans find moral orders in natural orders. Why have human beings, in many different cultures and epochs, looked to nature as a source of norms for human behavior? From ancient India and ancient Greece, medieval France and Enlightenment America, up to the latest controversies over gay marriage and cloning, natural orders have been enlisted to illustrate and buttress moral orders. Revolutionaries and reactionaries alike have appealed to nature to shore up their causes. No amount of philosophical argument or political critique deters the persistent and pervasive temptation to conflate the “is” of natural orders with the “ought” of moral orders. In this short, pithy work of philosophical anthropology, Lorraine Daston asks why we continually seek moral orders in natural orders, despite so much good counsel to the contrary. She outlines three specific forms of natural order in the Western philosophical tradition—specific natures, local natures, and universal natural laws—and describes how each of these three natural orders has been used to define and oppose a distinctive form of the unnatural. She argues that each of these forms of the unnatural triggers equally distinctive emotions: horror, terror, and wonder. Daston proposes that human reason practiced in human bodies should command the attention of philosophers, who have traditionally yearned for a transcendent reason, valid for all species, all epochs, even all planets.

Natural Law
Author: Ben Wood Johnson
Publisher: Eduka Solutions
ISBN: 0997902884
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Natural Law: Morality and Obedience This short opus is part of a collection of a larger body of work, which are dedicated to the subject of law or legal obligation. This installment focuses on natural law. The goal here is to elucidate the essentiality of citizen obedience. Another goal here is to make the case that, while in theory the notion of natural law seems to contradict the concept known as positive law, when it comes to legal obligation (in practice of course), any distinction, if it were to exist at all, is negligible. This text examines the degree to which natural law (as presently understood) could explicate the reason people may feel obligated to obey laws. The book further explores the rationale for legal obedience in terms of morality and reason. It examines popular legal precepts, notably positive law and other doctrines related to natural law. The arguments echoed throughout the text are unique. But it is important to point out that a full appreciation of the notion of Natural Law may require some anterior understanding about the concept of Legal Theory. I encourage you to keep a positive outlook as you navigate the manuscript.
