Morality and pessimism
There are currents of moral ideas which are partly philosophical and partly something less precise, changes in public consciousness. Utilitarianism has always been a comparatively clear moral theory, with a simple core and central notion, easily grasped and easily translated into practical terms. The pessimism, or at least lack of optimism, is compatible with a secular doctrine, akin to that of natural law, that represents many of the seemingly n…
Justice Is Conflict
Freedom of Mind and Other Essays
Each of the fourteen essays in this volume is directed to some aspect of these two questions: What are the peculiarities of the concepts that we use to describe and to criticize the mental states and performances of human beings? What are the peculiarities of the knowledge that we may possess of our own mental states and attitudes and of the mental states and attitudes of others? Each of us is both a scientific student of others' beliefs, desires…
Freedom of the Individual
Stuart Hampshire's essay on human freedom offers an important analysis of concepts surrounding the central idea of intentional action. The author contrasts the powers of animals and of inanimate things; examines the relation between power and action; and distinguishes between two kinds of self-knowledge. Explaining human freedom by means of this distinction, he focuses his attention on self-knowledge gained by introspection. He writes: ...an indi…
Justice is strife
It has always been recognized that proposals about the sense of ‘reason’ and ‘rationality’ will have moral and political implications. I shall argue that it has been a misfortune that the term ‘reason’ was interpreted by Plato and Aristotle as referring to a faculty of the divided soul. The parallel between the city/social order, rightly conceived and planed, and the soul, put in order by nature, is carefully worked out. In it, political choice i…
Justice Is Conflict
Publisher's description: This book, which inaugurates the Princeton Monographs in Philosophy series, starts from Plato's analogy in the Republic between conflict in the soul and conflict in the city. Plato's solution required reason to impose agreement and harmony on the warring passions, and this search for harmony and agreement constitutes the main tradition in political philosophy up to and including contemporary liberal theory. Hampshire unde…

Cutting Moral Principles down to Size
Morality and convention
1. The philosophical dispute about the objectivity of morals has been four, or more, disputes rolled into one. First, there is the argument about predicates standing for moral qualities: are they to be construed as instrinsic qualities of actions or situations? Secondly, there is the quite different dispute as to whether to attribute a moral quality to a person or to an action is properly to be taken as describing that person or action, or to be …

Taking Morals Seriously
Public and Private Morality
In the Leslie Stephen lecture, re-printed as 'Morality and Pessimism', I used the phrase 'rational computational morality' in a pejorative sense, and I spoke of the 'abstract cruelty in politics' which had been associated in the U.S.A. during the Vietnam War with a new quasi-quantitative precision in the calculation of the consequences of alternative policies. These charges against a type of utilitarian thinking need fully argued support, and par…
Public and Private Morality
How far can we apply the same moral principles to both public and private behaviour. In the interests of effective political action, are we right to accept acts of deceit, exploitation or force which we would regard as unacceptable in private relations with individuals? What means can be properly adopted in the promotion of great public causes? The problem of 'dirty hands' in politics was posed most strikingly by Machiavelli. It has re-emerged th…

This is probably one of the two or three most important and original works of general philosophy which have been published in English in the last twenty years. Both its main thesis and the mass of its detailed observations will certainly be a focus of discussion among philosophers for many years to come; and it has the distinction of style and the large simplicity of purpose which have always made the best philosophical writing a part of general …

Hume on Personal Identity
A person is sometimes said to have no strong sense of his own identity. What that usually means is that he lacks some of the things that give inner stability and continuity to a human life: for instance, he may be uncertain about his beliefs, feelings and desires; he may not know the sort of person that he is, or the sort of person that he wants to be. But there is also another way in which a person may lose the sense of his own identity: he may …

THE relation of thought to action, as compared with the relation of thought to statement-this is one of the oldest issues of philosophy. What is the relation of what we mean to what we actually say?
