RESPONSIBILITY AND UBUNTU: PROLEGOMENA TO GENERAL ETHICS

Meer over het boek

Exploring a groundbreaking conception of responsibility, the author critiques traditional moral philosophy's neglect of this vital concept. Emphasizing responsibility as a psychological disposition, the book advocates for unconditional respect for all individuals, regardless of their circumstances. It introduces a "categorical imperative of responsibility," urging actions that honor humanity in everyone. By integrating this new perspective with the ethics of Ubuntu, the author argues for a foundation for a more humane and peaceful global ethics.
