Sinossi

""An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation"" is a philosophical treatise written by the English philosopher Jeremy Bentham. Originally published in 1789, the book explores the nature of morality and ethics and argues for the importance of utilitarianism as a guiding principle for moral decision-making. In this updated version from 1823, Bentham expands on his original ideas and provides a more comprehensive analysis of the principles of morality and their application to society. The book is divided into several parts, each of which examines a different aspect of moral philosophy. In the first part, Bentham defines the concept of utility and argues that it should be the basis for all moral decision-making. He explains that actions should be judged based on their ability to promote the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. The second part of the book explores the concept of punishment and argues that it should be used only to prevent harm to society and not as a form of retribution. Bentham also proposes a system of prison reform that emphasizes rehabilitation rather than punishment. The third part of the book examines the role of the government in promoting happiness and preventing harm. Bentham argues that the government should focus on promoting the general welfare of society and should only intervene in individual affairs when necessary to prevent harm. Overall, ""An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation"" is a seminal work in the field of moral philosophy and remains relevant today. Bentham's ideas continue to influence contemporary discussions of ethics and the role of government in promoting the well-being of society.""In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
