@ TELEGRAM: “DISAGREEMENT DOES NOT NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE OVERCOME. IT MAY REMAIN AN IMPORTANT AND CONSTITUTIVE FEATURE OF OUR RELATIONS TO OTHERS AND ALSO BE SEEN AS SOMETHING THAT IS MERELY TO BE EXPECTED IN THE LIGHT OF THE BEST EXPLANATIONS WE HAVE OF HOW SUCH DISAGREEMENT ARISES.“ BERNARD WILLIAMS SIR BERNARD ARTHUR OWEN WILLIAMS WAS AN ENGLISH MORAL PHILOSOPHER. “IT MAY BE THAT CONSIDERATIONS OF JUSTICE ARE A CENTRAL ELEMENT OF ETHICAL THOUGHT THAT TRANSCENDS THE RELATIVISM OF DISTANCE. PERHAPS THIS, TOO, COMES FROM A FEATURE OF THE MODERN WORLD. WE HAVE VARIOUS CONCEPTIONS OF SOCIAL JUSTICE, WITH DIFFERENT POLITICAL CONSEQUENCES; EACH HAS COMPREHENSIBLE ROOTS IN THE PAST AND IN OUR SENTIMENTS. SINCE WE KNOW THAT WE DO NOT ACCEPT THEIR PAST LEGITIMATIONS, BUT OTHERWISE ARE NOT SURE HOW TO READ THEM, WE ARE DISPOSED TO SEE PAST CONCEPTIONS OF JUSTICE AS EMBODIMENTS OF IDEAS THAT STILL HAVE A CLAIM ON MODERN PEOPLE. TO THIS EXTENT, WE SEE THEM AS IN REAL CONFRONTATION WITH EACH OTHER AND WITH MODERN IDEAS.“ BERNARD WILLIAMS #historyandphilosophy #moralphilosophy #ethics #bernardwilliams #education #critiqueofutilitarianism #critiqueofkant #reasonsofaction #approachtoethics #innabesedina #contemporaryphilosophy #westernphilosophy #analyticphilosophy #postanalyticphilosophy #knowledge #cognition #studying #quotes #philosophical #thoughts #philosophicalthoughts #selfgrowth #wisdom #wisdomquotes #smartquotes #smart #smartthoughts #cleverquotes #clever #cleverthoughts #interesting #interestingthoughts 00:00 BERNARD WILLIAMS 01:02 PHILOSOPHY / APPROACH TO ETHICS 03:02 CRITIQUE OF KANT 03:44 CRITIQUE OF UTILITARIANISM 05:35 REASONS FOR ACTION THIS VIDEO CONTAINS PHRASES / QUOTES BY BERNARD WILLIAMS.
