«El paradigma que estamos construyendo se basa en la convicción de que es más fuerte la generosidad que el egoísmo, más poderosa la empatía que el odio, más eficiente la colaboración que la competencia, más constructiva la libertad que la prohibición y más fructífera la confianza que la desconfianza. Tenemos la certeza de que los principios éticos y vanguardistas de nuestro pueblo son las claves del nuevo pacto social y del modelo de desarrollo para el México que está renaciendo tras la larga y oscura noche del neoliberalismo».

This revolutionary treatise starts from one fundamental premise: that our phenomenal consciousness includes direct experience of value. For too long, ethical theorists have looked for value in external states of affairs or reduced value to a projection of the mind onto them. The result, unsurprisingly, is widespread antirealism about ethics. In this book, Sharon Hewitt Rawlette turns our metaethical gaze inward and dares us to consider that value, rather than being something “out there”, is a quality woven into the very fabric of our conscious experience, in a highly objective way.

As Erich Fromm points out, ours is "a life between having and being"—between mere having and healthy being, between destructiveness and creativity, between narcissism and productive self-understanding, between passivity and the joy of positive activity. The alternatives of having and being are basic orientations of our character and determine our behavior. The mostly unpublished and unknown texts featured in The Essential Fromm encapsulate the psychologist's views on the fulfilling life.

Aristóteles fue uno de los filósofos más importantes de la antigua Grecia y su obra "La Gran Moral" es una de sus obras más conocidas en el campo de la ética. En "La Gran Moral", Aristóteles aborda la cuestión de cómo vivir una vida virtuosa y feliz. Para él, la virtud es el camino hacia la felicidad y la vida buena. La virtud es una disposición adquirida que permite a la persona actuar de manera correcta y tomar decisiones justas y equilibradas. Según Aristóteles, hay dos tipos de virtudes: la virtud intelectual y la virtud moral.

In this rigorous distillation of his political philosophy, Philip Pettit, author of the landmark work Republicanism, champions a simple standard for our most complex political judgments, offering a challenging ideal that nevertheless holds out a real prospect for social and democratic progress. Whereas many thinkers define freedom as the absence of interference—we are left alone to do as we please—Pettit demands that in their basic life choices free persons should not even be subject to a power of interference on the part of others.

Sprawling and illuminating, Dan Gretton’s I You We Them is an unprecedented study of perpetrators of crimes against humanity: the “desk killers” who ordered and directed some of the worst atrocities of the last century. From Albert Speer’s Nazi complicity to Royal Dutch Shell’s role in the murder of the Nigerian activist Ken Saro-Wiwa, Gretton probes the depths of the figure “who, by giving orders, uses paper or a phone or a computer to kill, instead of a gun.”

Ever since its publication in 1651, Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan has unsettled and challenged how we understand the World. Condemned and vilified by each new generation, Hobbes' cold political vision continues to see through any number of political and ethical vanities.

As consumers of art, and especially as fans, we have a host of tricky moral question to navigate: do the moral lives of artists affect the aesthetic quality of their work? In Drawing the Line, Erich Hatala Matthes argues that it doesn't matter whether we can separate the art from the artist, because we shouldn't. Matthes argues both that the lives of artists can play an important role in shaping our moral and aesthetic relationship to the artworks that we love and that these same artworks offer us powerful resources for grappling with the immorality of their creators.
