  1. Kant on Human Dignity.Oliver Sensen - 2011 - De Gruyter.
    Immanuel Kant is often considered to be the source of the contemporary idea of human dignity, but his conception of human dignity and its relation to human value and to the requirement to respect others have not been widely understood. Kant on Human Dignity offers the first in-depth study in English of this subject. Based on a comprehensive analysis of all the passages in which Kant uses the term ;dignity, as well as an analysis of the most prominent arguments for (...)

    Though the revised edition of A Theory of Justice, published in 1999, is the definitive statement of Rawls's view, so much of the extensive literature on Rawls's theory refers to the first edition. This reissue makes the first edition once again available for scholars and serious students of Rawls's work.

  • Dignity: Its History and Meaning.Michael Rosen - 2012 - Harvard University Press.
    Dignity plays a central role in current thinking about law and human rights, but there is sharp disagreement about its meaning. Combining conceptual precision with a broad historical background, Michael Rosen puts these controversies in context and offers a novel, constructive proposal. “Penetrating and sprightly...Rosen rightly emphasizes the centrality of Catholicism in the modern history of human dignity. His command of the history is impressive...Rosen is a wonderful guide to the recent German constitutional thinking about human dignity...[Rosen] is in general (...)

    Mit wenigen Ausnahmen war bis zum Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs in keiner Verfassung der Welt von der Würde des Menschen die Rede. Erst in der Charta der Vereinten Nationen von 1945, also vier Jahre vor der Verabschiedung des Grundgesetzes, wird als Gründungszweck der UN das Bestreben angeführt: “to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person”. In der Allgemeinen Menschenrechtserklärung von 1948 ist dann schon wiederholt von der Würde die Rede, so etwa gleich (...)

  • Normative Ethik.Dietmar von der Pfordten - 2010 - New York: De Gruyter.
    Normative ethics concerns the criticism and justification of morality, law, and other systems of norms. This book develops a normative ethical theory based on individuals and offers a third way beyond the dominant paradigms of Kantianism and Utilitarianism. This theory can assist us in answering concrete ethical questions. The book discusses, for example, the existence of duties to oneself, the permissibility of paternalistic decisions for others, and the status of supererogatory actions. It also considers various problems in bioethics. Key features: (...)

  • The Good Sense of Dignity - Six Antidotes to Dignity Fatigue in Ethics and Law.Matthias Mahlmann - unknown
    Six issues that seem particularly important for examining human dignity as an ethical and legal concept are explored. First, the problems of its genealogy and second, the elements of its content are critically reconstructed. Third, questions of justification are addressed, in particular drawing attention to the axiological power of secular, egalitarian humanism for the theory of legitimacy of human dignity. Fourth, problems of concretisation are discussed that concern the precise circumscription of the scope the limits of dignity if it is (...)
