In a revolutionary approach to the problems of moral philosophy, Philip Kitcher makes a provocative proposal: Instead of conceiving ethical commands as divine revelations or as the discoveries of brilliant thinkers, we should see our ethical practices as evolving over tens of thousands of years, as members of our species have worked out how to live together and prosper. Elaborating this radical new vision, Kitcher shows how the limited altruistic tendencies of our ancestors enabled a fragile social life, how our forebears learned to regulate their interactions with one another, and how human societies eventually grew into forms of previously unimaginable complexity. The most successful of the many millennia-old experiments in how to live, he contends, survive in our values today.Drawing on natural science, social science, and philosophy to develop an approach he calls "pragmatic naturalism," Kitcher reveals the power of an evolving ethics built around a few core principles-including justice and cooperation-but leaving room for a diversity of communities and modes of self-expression. Ethics emerges as a beautifully human phenomenon-permanently unfinished, collectively refined and distorted generation by generation. Our human values, Kitcher shows, can be understood not as a final system but as a project-the ethical project-in which our species has engaged for most of its history, and which has been central to who we are. 606 $aEthics, Evolutionary 615 0$aEthics, Evolutionary. 676 $a171/.7 700 $aKitcher$b Philip$f1947-$066707 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781979403321 996 $aThe ethical project$93811590 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04363nam 2200697Ia 450 001 9910781487303321 005 20110627175641.0 010 $a1-283-16037-4 010 $a9786613160379 010 $a0-85724-802-2 035 $a(CKB)2550000000040087 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000674453 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11378898 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000674453 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10669349 035 $a(PQKB)11781048 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC730839 035 $a(WaSeSS)Ind00039815 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL730839 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10482215 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL316037 035 $a(OCoLC)733344545 035 $a(UtOrBLW)bslw07613171 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000040087 100 $a20110627d2011 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aEconomic crisis and crime$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Mathieu Deflem 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aBingley, U.K. $cEmerald$d2011 215 $axii, 212 p. $cill 225 1 $aSociology of crime law and deviance,$x1521-6136 ;$vv. 16 300 $aBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph 311 $a0-85724-801-4 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $aFraud and inequality in the subprime mortgage crisis / Tomson H.

Irwin. 330 $aThis volume addresses a variety of issues related to economic crisis in the broadest sense of the term, involving diverse national and international contexts, historical epochs, and a range of problems related to economic life. The chapters in this volume tackle criminologically relevant questions in connection with crime/deviance and/or the control thereof, on the basis of an analysis of any aspect of economic life, in general, and economic crisis, in particular. Thematically diverse within the province of criminology and the sociology of crime, deviance, and social control, the chapters are not restricted in terms of theoretical approach and methodological orientation. In these and all other relevant respects, this book is usefully varied in examining selected dimensions of economic crisis in relation to important questions of crime and crime control. Specific themes discussed include: corporate crime, money laundering, foreclosures, and mortgage fraud. This volume provides timely analyses of the impact of the current economic crisis, innovative perspectives on problems of economy and finance, and criminological insights on often neglected aspects of social life. 410 0$aSociology of crime, law, and deviance ;$vv. 16. 606 $aSocial Science$xCriminology$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science$xSociology$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aSociology$2bicssc 606 $aLaw & society$2bicssc 606 $aCrime$xEconomic aspects 615 7$aSocial Science$xCriminology. 615 7$aSocial Science$xSociology$xGeneral. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xGeneral. 615 7$aSociology. 615 7$aLaw & society. 615 0$aCrime$xEconomic aspects. 676 $a364 701 $aDeflem$b Mathieu$0527250 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781487303321 996 $aEconomic crisis and crime$93868246 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01140nam0 22002771i 450 001 UON00108046 005 20231205102624.104 100 $a20020107d1976 |0itac50 ba 101 $arus 102 $aSU 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aEgipet v bor'be za ekonomiceskyjo nezavisimost' 1952-1971$fV.
