Introduction to the Metaphysic of Morals

Meer over het boek

The book explores the distinction between two types of duties: juridical duties, which can be established through external laws, and ethical duties, which arise from moral principles and cannot be legislated. It delves into the implications of these categories, examining how they influence behavior and societal norms. By analyzing the nature of rights and virtues, the work offers insights into the foundations of moral philosophy and the role of law in ethical decision-making.
