An Introduction to Ethics (Moral Philosophy)
" Mr. Garlikov, I want to thank you. I have just finished
reading your "Introduction to Ethics", and I loved it! You
are a very good teacher and really know how to get your point across.
Normally I have to read through material at least twice before I can begin
to grasp what the author is trying to say. I just wanted to thank
you because you have a wonderful way with words and it really helped me
out." -- Vanessa V. [unsolicited e-mail about "An Introduction to Ethics,"
May 1, 2000]
An
Introduction to Ethics
A file
that can be read in, or printed out from, any web browser.
(approximately 55-60 8.5x11 pages in normal font sizes)
This work consists of two chapters from the book The
Meaning of Love, by Richard Garlikov, which serve as a self-contained
introduction to the subject of ethics. This introduction should be helpful
to anyone who is taking an introductory level college course in ethics
or anyone who would like to learn about moral philosophy on his or her
own. The introduction is logical and analytic but should be interesting,
readable, and clear to any reasonably serious reader, especially one who
likes to think about a subject while reading. Interesting, easily recognized
examples from daily life illustrate and explain the points that are made.
Included Topics:
"Who's to say" what is right or wrong? (And "Does morality depend on
religion or what God says?")
The meaning of terms such as 'good', 'bad', 'right', 'wrong', 'duty',
'ought', 'obligation', 'motive', 'consequences', 'intentions', etc.
Reasons why the distinctions between motive, intention, and act are
important.
Evidence for the objectivity of ethics, and invalidity of the evidence
that ethics is just subjective
The nature of moral responsibility
Normative ethics: seeking the highest ethical principles and values:
Theories holding that right actions are those which have the best overall
consequences (and ideas about what the "best" or "good" consequences are)
egoism -- best consequences for the person doing the act
altruism -- best consequences for others
utilitarianism -- best consequences for the greatest number
Theories holding that something other than the value of consequences
is what makes acts right or wrong:
Kant's principles
the Golden Rule
various lists of specific rules, laws, or regulations
duties, such as promise keeping, paying debts, obligations to family,
etc.
principles of reasonable or fair distribution
Problems with all the above theories
A theory of obligation and of right which takes into account the above
theories and their problems.
Whether, and why, one should be ethical (particularly when it goes against
one's own self-interest)
