Moral Vulnerability
All people are born into a state of extreme vulnerability. They cannot grow up without the love and care of others—their parents or other caregivers. But this does not mean that those who grow up and become healthy adults acquire a state of invulnerability. Grownups, as much as minors, can be harmed either by natural events or by actions of other people. In the former case, the victims suffer a misfortune; in the latter case, they suffer an injus…
Impartiality through ‘Moral Optics’
We read Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments as a critical response to David Hume's moral theory. While both share a commitment to moral sentimentalism, they propose different ways of meeting its main challenge, that is, explaining how judgments informed by (partial) sentiments can nevertheless have a justified claim to general authority. This difference is particularly manifest in their respective accounts of ‘moral optics’, or the way they r…

Questioning the Importance of Being Normal – An Inquiry into the Normative Constraints of Normality
Intersubjectivity and Objectivity in Adam Smith and Edmund Husserl
Can we have objective knowledge of the world? Can we understand what is morally right or wrong? Yes, to some extent. This is the answer given by Adam Smith and Edmund Husserl.

But they held his empirical method in high regard, inquiring into the way we perceive and emotionally experience the world, into the nature and function of human empathy and sympathy and the rol…
Adam Smith als Moralphilosoph
For several years now, Adam Smith's Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) has been attracting increasing attention. Smith is concerned not only with the question of rational grounds for moral action, but also and above all with moral feelings and a corresponding moral education. Thus his theory offers a promising alternative to the theories of David Hume and Immanuel Kant, which have often been cited in past debates. Working from the moral philosophy…

Aesthetic Reconstructions
This book presents the central arguments of three of literature's classic texts, Lessing's Laocoon, Kant's Critique of Judgment and Schiller's Letters on the Aesthetic Education of Man. It concentrates on Lessing's defence of medium-constrained canons of judgment, on Kant's search for a rational connection between our subjectively based evidence for aesthetic judgments and the actual content of those judgments, and on Schiller's anti-formalist ac…
