Full textWith the genesis of the Czech history, during the first half of the twentieth century, a great moment of political philosophy is born: a Czechoslovakian State can declare its existence as a result of an uncompromising conflict with an extremely tormented lot. The long walk to emancipation from the Austro-Hungarian empire and the religious persecutions were followed by a thirty-year-long war and eventually ended in a private experience of exile resulting in personal breakdown. Finally, negotiations with the Austrian parliament started in the ninetieth century so the Czech could gain a status of respect. This awareness was gained by a people constantly on the move according to Hannah Arendt. The Czech philosopher called it crisis or Krisis. It can be felt within your own being, just like a [relationship of being], a scission within your being always questioning about one self and the world as well as searching for perfection and spiritual well-being. Considering the truth of the world in order to outline a meaning and a judgment is a high-risk experience. Jan Patocka traces there "the solidarity of the shaken" for a "life in truth".We will first look into the main eminent thinkers that have made the Czechoslovakian State come to life, thanks to its philosophers, mainly Jan Patocka, who after a life of protests, endlessly felt an urge for existence. They trespassed the rules, disrupted the rigid order to unveil a moment of truth and give it a meaning. We will then see how philosopher-kings of this country, Tomas Garrigue Masaryk and Vaclav Havel became precious guides to the Czech people during the country’s dark years. Their philosophy mentors are never too far

Full textThis dissertation deals with several topics around well-being measurement and welfarism, mostly in ethics, philosophy of mind and philosophy of science. The concept of well-being plays a crucial role in a variety of moral theories, including welfarist theories. This raises a series of questions about its measurement, both in its metaphysical and epistemological aspects. Since well-being has to be aggregated in order to determine the level of collective well-being, it must have some quantitative properties. However, full measurability requires to have an epistemic access to these quantitative properties. We address these epistemological questions from two complementary perspectives. First, we look at the kind of epistemic access that a subject has to the affective component of well-being, namely pleasure and displeasure. Second, we explore some methodological issues related to the measurement of collective wellbeing when a welfarist theory is put in practice

This study investigates the effects of Buddhist philosophy on personal financial well-being. To determine financial well-being, compulsive buying behavior, prudent wealth management behavior, financial risk tolerance and financial desire discrepancy are treated as measurement for this study. The literature shows that religion influences an individual ethic, belief, behavior, personality, and habit. However, most of previous studies focus on general religiosity. This study focuses on the specific Buddhist philosophy named “The Four Immeasurables” which are compassion, loving kindness, empathetic joy, and equanimity. The empirical result from 373 international Buddhist respondents shows that “The Four Immeasurables” doctrine positively influences personal financial well-being. It has significant negatively affect to compulsive buying behavior and financial risk management, and has positively effect to prudent wealth management behavior. Although, The Four Immeasurables doctrine has positively effect to financial desire discrepancy, they do show the significant relationship. The current research contributes to financial behavior and personal ethical financial literature. In practical, financial institution can use this finding to better understand Buddhist customers and develop new product and service to match with customers’ preference.

Full textIn this M.A. research, I try to understand why nonhuman animals are not considered autonomous in the contemporary liberal theories. To do this, I analyze two main conceptions of autonomy, autonomy as moral agency and hierarchical autonomy (as the capacity to act according to second-order desires), and I argue that these conceptions both fail to justify the respect of personal choices even for human agents. I suggest that these two conceptions of autonomy lead to perfectionist and paternalist conclusions, although this is inconsistent with their function. I then review a few alternative versions of autonomy that do not rely on possessing moral or rational faculties, before sketching a new conception of autonomy that could answer the different issues raised during this research and potentially recognize the autonomy of nonhuman animals.

Full textThe goal of this dissertation is to defend the view that ecological wholes, such as biotic communities and ecosystems, have a good of their own, from which an idea of what is good for them can be derived. This aims to respond to the common criticism addressed to the two main holistic approaches to environmental ethics, namely Bryan G. Norton’s pragmatist approach and John Baird Callicott’s ecocentrist approach, which argues that biotic communities and ecosystems have no such good. This dissertation addresses those objections by mobilizing theoretical resources taken from the philosophy of biology and metaethics. In particular, those theoretical resources come from studies about the notions of function and health in the philosophy of biology, from neo-aristotelian accounts of normativity in metaethics, and from discussions in the philosophy of ecology on holism and reductionism, the balance of nature idea, and the concept of ecosystem health. Those resources are mobilized to elaborate some philosophical foundations for the notions of ecological function and ecosystem health, from which an account of the good of ecosystems is derived.
