Ziel dieses Buches ist es festzustellen, wie moralische Urteile rational begründet, wie konfuse moralische Fragen rational aufgelöst und wie moralische Diskurse rational aufgebaut werden können. Damit wird nach Singer das Fundament gelegt für ein rationales Sytem der Moralphilosophie. Aus dem Klappentext: Singers Buch gehört zu der Richtung angelsächsischer Ethik, die, im Anschluß an Kant, den Gesichtspunkt vernünftiger Begründung in der Ethik geltend macht und sich damit gegen alle Varianten des moralischen Skeptizismus wendet, die in der Behauptung übereinstimmen, daß es so etwas wie einen guten Grund für ein moralisches Urteil und stichhaltige moralische Argumente für Handlungsnormen nicht gibt. In diesem Zusammenhang untersucht Singer fundamentale Prinzipien moralischen Argumentierens und die Bedingungen, unter denen sie anwendbar und gültig sind. Sein spezifischer Ansatz geht aus vom Prinzip der Folgen (in seiner verallgemeinerten Form): "Wenn die Folgen davon, daß jeder x täte, nicht wünschenswert wären, dann sollte nicht jeder x tun." In Verbindung mit dem Prinzip der Verallgemeinerung, das in der Tradition auch als das Prinzip der Gerechtigkeit, Fairneß oder Unparteilichkeit bekannt ist: "Was für einen richtig ist, muß unter ähnlichen Umständen auch für jeden anderen richtig sein" bildet es die Grundlage eines Arguments, das nach Singers Auffassung - zumindest implizit - das zentrale Argument eines jeden moralischen Disputs ist, in dem es darum geht, Handlungen und Normen zu rechtfertigen. Singer nennt es das Argument der Verallgemeinerung Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 450 Wissenschaftliche Sonderausgabe. Erste Auflage dieser Ausgabe.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The Ideal of a Rational Morality collects the most important essays by the distinguished moral philosopher Marcus G. Singer. Its guiding theme is the concept of a morality based in reason, which is presupposed in ordinary moral contexts and provides an ideal for improving ordinary morality and correcting moral judgements. Singer makes compelling claims that certain fundamental presuppositions are inescapable in moral thought, that fundamental moralprinciples can be proved, and that the concepts of truth and 'common sense' are essential to ethics.Subsequent essays proceed to analyse the nature of value judgements and of moral judgements,emphasising the vital importance of certain basic distinctions. There is a discussion of race and racism, presenting new ideas about the nature of both. The relation of law to morality is considered, as are the relations between moral judgements of individual persons and the actions and moral judgements of institutions, leading to an examination of the relations between moral issues and social problems. A particularly well-known essay on the Golden Rule is reproduced, where Singer's analysisshows it to be applicable and defensible as it stands, and finally the nature of happiness is explored through a discussion of John Stuart Mill's moral philosophy.Each essay issupplemented by a set of Additional Notes and Comments, with supplementary pieces and response to criticisms. The Ideal of a Rational Morality will be fascinating reading for anybody seeking rigour and clarity in ethical issues. The Ideal of a Rational Morality collects essays by the moral philosopher Marcus G. Singer. Its guiding ambition is to find an ideal for improving ordinary morality and moral judgements by using reason, mounting compelling arguments against scepticism, relativism, prejudice, and racism.
