The major example used in this voume , the massacre at My Lai, is to be thought of as the occasion for raising and investigating the moral and legal questions of individual and collective responsibility. We are not trying to pass judgment on Lt. Calley, his company, or his superiors; that has been done and surely will be reviewed. We are not pronouncing a verdict on the American system; that has also been done, and it will continue to be done in the years of social retrospection which hopefully will follow the Indochina war. Yet, neither are we putting off judgment. Instead, the philosophers in this volume are examining the grounds for holding various notions of responsibility and the application of such notions of atrocity that was My Lai. In brief, the aim of this book and of the series as a whole, is to produce exciting new philosophical contributions to the major ethical controversies of the day." (p. vii) [Now think of contemporary Moral Issues of sinking "drug" boats and killing their crews in international waters, kidnapping a sovereign nation's President and extraditing him for trial in another country, commandeering oil tankers in international waters, invading another sovereign country to kill drug lords and their followers, using military might on domestic soil to achieve "political" goals of the country's President, etc. // Glossy orange wrappers with Title lettering in thick white letters on top third front cover, just above Editor name lettering in small black letters at upper left middle front cover; Illustration on lower half front cover of two soldiers in helmets, profiled leftward, with an unhelmeted man looking toward reader, partially obscured by a helmet, with a human hand pointing off to the right, suggesting that "responsibility lies elsewhere".

Paperback. Condizione: New. This book propounds a theory of reason and a theory of morality, advanced by Professor Baier in his APA presidential address and his Carus Lectures. Our possession of reason and our ability to reason depend on our having grown up in a rational order: a social order which engages in the enterprise of reason and, through socialisation, passes on from one generation to the next the knowledge of the recognised general principles of reasoning, the ability to apply them to particular cases, and the methods for further improvement. Two kinds of practical reason can be distinguished, the "self-anchored" and the "society-anchored", the second being by its nature paramount over the first. Much of this is also true of morality because, Baier argues in detail, the moral enterprise is the same as that of society-anchored reason. "The Rational and the Moral Order" sets out original arguments for a number of controversial claims. Moral directives imply that they are themselves sound, and therefore pass a certain test, and can be said to be true or false. Purported conceptions of morality are genuine only if they construe moral judgements as capable of being sound or unsound.Sound moralities are society-relative, and it can be shown that sound moral reasons are always paramount over reasons of self-interest.…
