Abstract

Analyses of one of the central debates at the dawn of the Enlightenment: are people motivated only by self-interest?The dawn of the Enlightenment saw heated debates on self-love. Do people only act out of self-interest? Or is there a less pessimistic explanation for human behaviour? Maurer delves into the contributions to these debates from both famous and lesser known authors, including Lord Shaftesbury, Bernard Mandeville, Francis Hutcheson, Joseph Butler, Archibald Campbell, David Hume and Adam Smith, and puts them in their philosophical, theological and economic context.Maurer identifies five distinct conceptions of self-love and looks at their role within theories of human psychology and morality while drawing attention to the heuristic limits of our contemporary notion of egoism. He compares the central arguments and the different strategies intended to morally rehabilitate human nature and self-love before and during the Enlightenment.Key FeaturesThoroughly analyses and compares various positions in the debates on self-love in 18th-century British moral philosophyPlaces the central arguments on self-love in their philosophical and theological contextProvides the first analysis of Archibald Campbell’s account of self-love in his moral philosophy"

Abstract

« L'éthique objectiviste considère que ce qui est bon pour l'homme ne nécessite pas de sacrifices humains et ne peut être accompli par le sacrifice des uns en faveur des autres. (...) Elle considère que les intérêts rationnels des hommes ne se contredisent pas, et qu'il ne peut y avoir de conflits d'intérêts entre des hommes qui ne désirent pas ce qu'ils ne méritent pas, qui ne font ni n'acceptent de sacrifices et qui traitent les uns avec les autres sur la base d'un échange librement consenti, donnant valeur pour valeur. »Cette pensée est celle de Ayn Rand (1905-1982), philosophe, romancière, dont la vie fut aussi iconoclaste et tumultueuse que l'&oeliguvre. Née en Russie, elle fuit celle-ci après la révolution bolchévique et émigre aux États-Unis où elle commence une carrière de scénariste à Hollywood avant d'écrire deux best-sellers, The Fountainhead, et Atlas Shrugged. Rassemblant une série d'articles et de conférences, La Vertu d'égoïsme constitue une excellente approche de la pensée forte, singulière et redoutablement actuelle - l'objectivisme - d'une des plus notables et influentes figures de la vie intellectuelle américaine du milieu du XXe siècle.
