Lecture 1
Morality:
an informal, public systems of ideas applying to persons, aimed at achieving the good life
- No established procedure that can establish all the controversial questions
- However, overwhelming agreement on the majority of issues
Public system:
all those to whom it applies must be understanding of it (morality). Must not be irrational to
follow those rules. Not irrational to judge others if you break those rules
Morality can be private to a person itself: I will exercise for one hour
John Rawls: we should accept a pluralism of ideas of the good life
- Irrational that we all follow the same moral rules
Religion as a subcategory of morality
Justice:
informal public system of rules concerning correct way of organizing organizations that organize
society
- Rawls: distributing burdens and benefits of society
- Membership of society is not voluntary, there is no real ‘exit’
- Question: how do we organize then that it is just for everyone?
Informal public system
Difference: how we ought to live our lives vs. how we organize our political community
Law:
formal system of public rules within a society. Rules are explicitly written down. Clear what the
rules and penalties are
Formal procedure:
1. Clear who makes the law and by what procedure
, 2. Is consistent set of rules binding for all
3. Not set in stone, temporary and reversible
Legal Positivism:
Law and the legal order set of rules laid down that have specific roles with law making authority,
this is the way law is made
- Only thing that is relevant: whether law is made by the correct institution
- Clearly distinguishes between law and morality
Alternative: rule breaking
- Criminal behavior : concealed rule breaking
- Civil disobedience : obviously breaking rule because you are in disagreement with it
- Vigilantism : illegitimately acting as a rule enforcer. Breaking monopoly of the state to
use violence. Self appointer of justice
- Revolution: whole set of rules are broken.
Circumstances of the state: why do we need it in the first place?
Governs us all without conflict
1. Scarcity: need all kinds of things: water, sleep etc. equality of need
2. Limited altruism
3. Scarcity of natural resources
Need of rules to regulate: otherwise fights break out
