The ethics of subjectivity

perspectives since the dawn of modernity

herausgegeben vonElvis Imafidon

Abstrakt

Through the works of key figures in ethics since modernity this book charts a shift from dominant fixated, objective moral systems and the dependence on moral authorities such as God, nature and state to universal, formal, fallible, individualistic and/or vulnerable moral systems that ensue from the modern subject's exercise of reason and freedom.
