Více o knize
Groundbreaking in its exploration of ethics, this classic work by Hume asserts that morality is rooted in feelings rather than knowledge. He argues that moral sentiment drives individuals to favor agreeable qualities based on their perceived utility to oneself. Hume's insights prefigure later utilitarian thought, emphasizing that virtues are valued for their usefulness to society. He highlights justice as a paramount virtue, essential for ensuring fairness and security, thereby fostering happiness for all. This influential text continues to shape philosophical discourse on ethics today.
