| Abstrak | Paradoxical Ethics is a unique book, exploring a crucial aspect of morality which we have neglected or suppressed. The book claims that the paradoxical is widespread, deep, and disturbing, and its recognition radically ought to change the way we think about ethics and the meaning of life. The extent to which ethics is paradoxical has not previously been studied by analytic philosophy. The idea of Paradoxical Ethics (PE) seeks to capture three things about morality, broadly understood. First, matters are paradoxical in the sense of being hard to believe—radically surprising, highly unlikely, unthinkable, absurd—but then we see the arguments. Second, we live in a morally paradoxical world. Much of moral reality is incredible, astounding, unruly, and full of weirdness, wonder, and mischief. Third, PE suggests an approach to doing moral philosophy that actively seeks out the paradoxical and welcomes the discovery of absurdity. Through novel puzzles, paradoxes, perversities, and other such perplexing features, we see the power of philosophy. The book is full of highly surprising and disruptive philosophical perplexities and insights on a large variety of topics. It starts with a detailed introduction, which explains the idea of PE. The 22 chapters that follow illustrate examples of PE, under the sections Theory: A Pluralistic, Complex, Disruptive, and Problematic Picture, Extending Moral Concern, Value and Meaning in Life, Teflon Immorality, Religion, and Free Will. The book ends with a detailed concluding chapter, which asks how we can and ought to live with the paradoxical, now and in the future. |
