Why Be Moral? and Utilitarianism (Lecture 3) Dustin Crummett 2022-09-01 | This video is part of a complete ethics course I taught. I will be uploading all the videos in the series in a playlist over time.One correction to the video: in discussing the history of utilitarianism, I am really discussing the history of the Western tradition that leads to utilitarianism as it exists in modern analytic philosophy. I wasn't aware, as I should have been, when making the video of the precursors to this tradition found in some strands of Eastern philosophy. Here is an article about utilitarianism in Buddhist thought:utilitarianism.net/guest-essays/buddhism-and-utilitarianismAnd Mohism is often taken to have an affinity with utilitarianism, though there are some important differences:https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/mohism/My website: dustincrummett.comTwitter: twitter.com/dustin_crummettPatreon: patreon.com/dustincrummettPaypal: paypal.me/dustincrummett?country.x=US&locale.x=en_USMy co-authored applied ethics book: amazon.com/Applied-Ethics-Introduction-Elizabeth-Jackson/dp/1647920116A book series I'm co-editing for Routledge: routledge.com/Little-Debates-about-Big-Questions/book-series/LDABQ

Is Political Authority an Illusion? A Debate: Michael Huemer and Daniel Layman Dustin Crummett 2022-07-31 | Michael Huemer and Daniel Layman discuss their co-authored debate book on political authority:routledge.com/Is-Political-Authority-an-Illusion-A-Debate/Huemer-Layman/p/book/9780367347451It's part of the Little Debates About Big Questions series, which I co-edit with Tyron Goldschmidt:routledge.com/Little-Debates-about-Big-Questions/book-series/LDABQPolitical authority is the supposed thing possessed by the government which makes it the case that (i) you have an obligation to obey the government's laws, and (ii) the government has a right to coerce you into obeying its laws. Roughly: Huemer thinks the burden of proof is on the person who believes in political authority, since it posits that governments are morally different from all other actors. And he thinks all attempts to meet this burden of proof fail, which leads him ultimately to endorse a form of anarchism. Meanwhile, Layman thinks political authority is possessed by democratically accountable states because, he thinks, they are the only entities capable of sufficiently safeguarding our fundamental rights.My website: dustincrummett.comTwitter: twitter.com/dustin_crummettPatreon: patreon.com/dustincrummettPaypal: paypal.me/dustincrummett?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US
