Abstract:

This chapter introduces the long-standing idea that inappropriate motives, such as self-interest, can militate against virtuous motivation (acting for the right reasons). Some theorists have tried to show that we are universally egoistic by appeal to empirical research, particularly evolutionary theory, moral development, and the neuroscience of learning. However, these efforts fail and instead decades of experiments on helping behavior provide powerful evidence that we are capable of genuine altruism. We can be motivated ultimately by a concern for others for their own sake, especially when empathizing with them. The evidence does not show that empathy blurs the distinction between self and other in a way that makes helping behavior truly egoistic or non-altruistic. Whether grounded in Christian love (agape) or the Buddhist notion of no-self (anātman), such self-other merging proposals run into empirical and conceptual difficulties.

Abstract:

Not to be confused with modesty or low self-esteem, humility is a multifaceted construct that is quite different from the misguided caricature that humble people are weak or timid and do not value themselves. In contrast, humility is a hypo-egoic phenomenon that involves a nondefensive willingness to see oneself accurately by acknowledging one’s personal limitations, combined with an appreciation for the strengths and contributions of other people from which one can learn. Research is reviewed that investigates humility both as a general dispositional characteristic, as well as in terms of the two specific domains of intellectual and relational humility. Although research clearly portrays humility primarily as a positive character strength, the potential liabilities of humility are also noted. The chapter also examines efforts to measure humility through self-reports and alternative approaches, along with the significant challenges of creating valid measures of humility.

Abstract:

This chapter introduces the role of development as a self-interested policy pursued by industrialized states in an increasingly connected world. As such, it is differentiated from traditional geopolitical accounts of interactions between industrialized and developing states as well as from assertions that the increased focus on development stems from altruistic motivations. The concept of targeted development—pursuing development abroad when and where it serves the interests of the policymaking states—is introduced and defined. The issue areas covered in the book—foreign aid, trade agreements between industrialized and developing countries, and finance for climate change adaptation and mitigation—are introduced. The preference for bilateral, rather than multilateral, action is discussed.

Abstract:

Chapter 6 argues that perceived unfairness and feelings of uncertainty are likely to lead to radicalization when combined with people’s tendencies to correct for their self-centered impulses in insufficient ways. The chapter reviews various instances in which people can find it difficult to correct for their egocentric impulses. In this way, the chapter examines how self-interest may influence people’s initial reactions and how insufficient correction processes may play a role in egocentric human behavior, including behavior of radicals, extremists, and even terrorists. Chapter 6 argues that insufficient self-correction plays a role in various processes of human radicalization. Figure 6.5 illustrates this process. The chapter also considers how and when people can do something against insufficient self-correction. This latter insight may be conducive to the possible prevention of radicalization and the initiation of successful deradicalization.

Abstract:

In directing the Paris climate summit in 2015, Christiana Figueres, the UN climate chief, explicitly appealed to each country’s economic self-interest in her efforts to bring them to an agreement. This chapter discusses the use of self-interest rhetoric in discussions of climate change mitigation and adaptation. An outgrowth of the widespread influence of mainstream economic teaching, such rhetoric unnecessarily narrows the bounds of discussion in favor of entrenched power and entrenched analytical biases. Ignoring the evidence about what actually motivates people and nations, it unhelpfully discourages discussions of ethics and of commitment.
