Self and Neighbour (Classic Reprint): An Ethical Study: An Ethical Study (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This study argues that ethics must unite the self with its neighbors, not keep them separate. It reconstructs moral theory to bridge theory and practice through the idea of community.
The book examines how traditional ethics have treated virtue as something private, and it offers a reconstruction that centers on inter‑subjective life. It shows how the self and others influence moral choice, duty, and the common good, aiming to harmonize scientific and popular views of conduct.
- Reconsiders major moral theories to reveal how they treat self and other
- Explores the idea of the alter and the role of community in ethical life
- Examines common good, conscience, and inter‑subjective relations
- Applies the theory to everyday conduct, social life, and moral responsibility
Ideal for readers interested in philosophy, ethics, and theology who want a more social, integrated view of virtue and obligation.

Self and Neighbour: An Ethical Study (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book reexamines the concept of a common good, arguing that a focus on individual virtue is insufficient for ethical theory. The author surveys representative ethical systems in order to demonstrate their inadequacy, and to reveal the necessity for a discussion of the relationship between the individual and their community. The author argues that goodness is not something which refers essentially to the individual, but rather that it is an attitude of each person to their neighbor, the promotion of a spiritual unity. This principle of community, the author terms "common good," and argues that it should be the foundation of ethics, drawing on psychology, metaphysics, and a study of inter-subjective intercourse to demonstrate the validity of this principle. The author concludes that fraternal solicitude - protective, parental, and universal - is adumbrated by nature and provides the ultimate justification for the principle of community. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
