Foundations of Libertarian Ethics

1. Objective and Subjective Value

철학과 방법론가치와 교환

06/26/2006Mises Media
Praxeology is a set of conceptual tools about the theory of action. It is the basis of economic theory. Whereas much has been fleshed out about the economics of human action, there is little about the ethics and natural rights of human action.

2. The Praxeological Case for an Ultimate End

철학과 방법론인간행동학

06/27/2006Mises Media
Claims of ultimate ends, like happiness or well-being, are impossible, says Hobbes. In this life, the fact that you are still acting shows that you have not achieved any ultimate end. Does action really express dissatisfaction? You can act to keep something happening, rather than to try to change...

3. Free Will: Two Paradoxes of Choice

철학과 방법론

4. The Moral Standpoint

철학과 방법론

6. Justice, Rights, and Consequences

법률 체계철학과 방법론

06/29/2006Mises Media

06/29/2006Mises Media
We have a right not to be aggressed against. Any other right has to be an application of my right not to have force initiated against me. Now, we need to do this with property rights. We need to treat the violation of property as aggression against self.

8. Punishment and War

법률 체계전쟁과 대외정책철학과 방법론

06/30/2006Mises Media
When can you respond to force? The four response positions range from “never” to “impose by force some further penalty on them”. A person’s capacity must be considered. Compensation instead of punishment is generally a libertarian society’s choice.

미디어와 문화철학과 방법론

06/30/2006Mises Media
Does libertarianism require widespread acceptance of certain cultural values? One end of the spectrum says yes [thick libertarianism].

법률 체계철학과 방법론정치 이론

07/01/2006Mises Media
