The Morals of Modernity
AvCharles Larmore,Robert B. Pippin
Häftad, Engelska, 1996

The essays collected in this volume all explore the problem of the relation between moral philosophy and modernity. Charles Larmore addresses this problem by attempting to define the way distinctive forms of modern experience should orientate our moral thinking. Charles Larmore wonders whether the dominant forms of modern philosophy have not become blind to important dimensions of the moral life. The book argues against recent attempts to return to the virtue-centered perspective of ancient Greek ethics. As well as exploring the differences between ancient and modern ethics, the author examines such topics as the roles of reason and history in our moral understanding, the inadequacy of philsophical naturalism, and the foundations of modern liberalism. There are also extended discussions of a number of leading contemporary philosophers: Rawls, Habermas, Williams and Rorty.
The Autonomy of Morality

In The Autonomy of Morality Charles Larmore challenges two ideas that have shaped the modern mind. The world, he argues, is not a realm of value-neutral fact, nor does human freedom consist in imposing principles of our own devising on an alien reality. Rather, reason consists in being responsive to reasons for thought and action that arise from the world itself. Larmore shows that the moral good has an authority that speaks for itself. Only in this light does the true basis of a liberal political order come into view, as well as the role of unexpected goods in the makeup of a life lived well.

A new understanding of political philosophy from one of its leading thinkersWhat is political philosophy? What are its fundamental problems? And how should it be distinguished from moral philosophy? In this book, Charles Larmore redefines the distinctive aims of political philosophy, reformulating in this light the basis of a liberal understanding of politics.Because political life is characterized by deep and enduring conflict between rival interests and differing moral ideals, the core problems of political philosophy are the regulation of conflict and the conditions under which the members of society may thus be made subject to political authority. We cannot assume that reason will lead to unanimity about these matters because individuals hold different moral convictions. Larmore therefore analyzes the concept of reasonable disagreement and investigates the ways we can adjudicate conflicts among people who reasonably disagree about the nature of the human good and the proper basis of political society. Challenging both the classical liberalism of Locke, Kant, and Mill, and more recent theories of political realism proposed by Bernard Williams and others, Larmore argues for a version of political liberalism that is centered on political legitimacy rather than on social justice, and that aims to be well suited to our times rather than universally valid.Forceful and thorough yet concise, What Is Political Philosophy? proposes a new definition of political philosophy and demonstrates the profound implications of that definition. The result is a compelling and distinctive intervention from a major political philosopher.

Morality and Metaphysics

In this book, Charles Larmore develops an account of morality, freedom, and reason that rejects the naturalistic metaphysics shaping much of modern thought. Reason, Larmore argues, is responsiveness to reasons, and reasons themselves are essentially normative in character, consisting in the way that physical and psychological facts - facts about the world of nature - count in favor of possibilities of thought and action that we can take up. Moral judgments are true or false in virtue of the moral reasons there are. We need therefore a more comprehensive metaphysics that recognizes a normative dimension to reality as well. Though taking its point of departure in the analysis of moral judgment, this book branches widely into related topics such as freedom and the causal order of the world, textual interpretation, the nature of the self, self-knowledge, and the concept of duties to ourselves.

Depuis longtemps, la démocratie libérale était pensée comme la combinaison de deux principes hétérogènes : l''exercice de la souveraineté du peuple et la protection des droits de l''individu. La démocratie libérale était ainsi conçue comme un compromis entre la démocratie et la liberté, ce qui donnerait lieu à des conflits récurrents entre le besoin de procéder par vote majoritaire et le souci d''éviter la tyrannie de la majorité. Bien que sans concurrent sérieux, la démocratie libérale constituerait plutôt un expédient qu''un idéal cohérent. Certaines voix se sont récemment élevées contre cette idée, tentant de montrer que liberté individuelle et souveraineté populaire sont logiquement inséparables et complémentaires. Mais personne avant Corey Brettschneider n''avait vu aussi clairement comment une telle approche devrait réellement procéder : en mettant en lumière une source commune à ces deux principes, qui consiste en trois valeurs que sont l''« égalité des intérêts », l''« autonomie politique », et la « réciprocité ». « L''apport précieux du livre de Brettschneider est de nous faire mieux apprécier la cohérence et ainsi la vitalité véritable de cette grande innovation politique des temps modernes qu''est la démocratie libérale. » (Charles Larmore)

Charles Larmore stellt keineswegs die Möglichkeit einer Moraltheorie in Frage. Indem er zentrale Probleme der Politik moralisch zu begründen sucht, plädiert er jedoch für einen flexibleren und sensibleren Umgang mit den Schwierigkeiten unseres moralischen Alltags.

Practices of the Self
AvCharles Larmore
Inbunden, Engelska, 2010
456 kr
Tillfälligt slut
What is the nature of the fundamental relation we have to ourselves that makes each of us a self? To answer this question, Charles Larmore develops a systematic theory of the self, challenging the widespread view that the self's defining relation to itself is to have an immediate knowledge of its own thoughts. On the contrary, Larmore maintains, our essential relation to ourselves is practical, as is clear when we consider the nature of belief and desire. For to believe or desire something consists in committing ourselves to thinking and acting in accord with the presumed truth of our belief or the presumed value of what we desire. Larmore develops this conception with frequent reference to such classic authors as Montaigne, Stendhal, and Proust and by comparing it to other views of the self in contemporary philosophy. He also discusses the important ethical consequences of his theory of the self, arguing that it allows us to better grasp what it means to be ourselves and why self-understanding often involves self-creation. "The Practices of the Self" is that rare kind of lucid yet rigorous work that transcends disciplinary boundaries.
