Western philosophers have long sought to establish an axiomatic systemization of ethics, but a lack of consensus on the core principles and objectives of ethics has hindered its completion. This comprehensive four-volume set presents a model that draws upon the insights of Chinese philosophers after a 22-year study. Within its pages, three essential components of ethics are explored: metaethics, normative ethics, and virtue ethics.
Volume 1 primarily delves into metaethics, where the author examines the five primitive concepts of ethics: "value," "good," "ought," "right," and "fact." Through meticulous research, he reveals the intricate relationship between these concepts and presents a novel solution to the enduring "Humes guillotine" question: whether "ought" can be derived from "fact." His overarching aim is to identify the methodologies for crafting exemplary moral norms, paving the way.way for solutions on how to prove ethical axioms and ethical postulates.
Written by a renowned philosopher, the Chinese version of this set has achieved remarkable sales, exceeding 60,000 copies, and has significantly impacted the academic landscape in China. The English version, now available, promises to be an indispensable resource for students and scholars of ethics and philosophy in general, offering a fresh perspective on the study of moral principles and ethical frameworks.
