Anarchism


source: Philosophical Overdose    2016年12月24日
In this episode of In Our Time, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Anarchism and why its political ideas became synonymous with chaos and disorder. Pierre Joseph Proudhon famously declared “property is theft”. And perhaps more surprisingly that “Anarchy is order”. Speaking in 1840, he was the first self-proclaimed anarchist. Anarchy comes from the Greek word “anarchos”, meaning “without rulers”, and the movement draws on the ideas of philosophers like William Godwin and John Locke. It is also prominent in Taoism, Buddhism and other religions. In Christianity, for example, St Paul said there is no authority except God. The anarchist rejection of a ruling class inspired communist thinkers too. Peter Kropotkin, a Russian prince and leading anarcho-communist, led this rousing cry in 1897: “Either the State for ever, crushing individual and local life... Or the destruction of States and new life starting again.. on the principles of the lively initiative of the individual and groups and that of free agreement. The choice lies with you!” In the Spanish Civil War, anarchists embarked on the largest experiment to date in organising society along anarchist principles. Although it ultimately failed, it was not without successes along the way. So why has anarchism become synonymous with chaos and disorder? What factors came together to make the 19th century and early 20th century the high point for its ideas? How has its philosophy influenced other movements from The Diggers and Ranters to communism, feminism and eco-warriors? With John Keane, Professor of Politics at Westminster University; Ruth Kinna, Senior Lecturer in Politics at Loughborough University; Peter Marshall, philosopher and historian.

The Social Contract


source: Philosophical Overdose    2016年12月19日
In this episode of In Our Time, Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Social Contract and ask a foundational question of political philosophy – by what authority does a government govern? “Man was born free and he is everywhere in chains”. So begins Jean Jacques Rousseau’s great work on the Social Contract. Rousseau was trying to understand why a man would give up his natural freedoms and bind himself to the rule of a prince or a government. But the idea of the social contract - that political authority is held through a contract with those to be ruled - began before Rousseau with the work of John Locke, Hugo Grotius and even Plato. We explore how an idea that burgeoned among the 17th century upheavals of the English civil war and then withered in the face of modern capitalist society still influences our attitude to government today. With Melissa Lane, Senior University Lecturer in History at Cambridge University; Susan James, Professor of Philosophy at Birkbeck College, University of London; Karen O’Brien, Professor of English Literature at the University of Warwick http://www.bbc.co.uk.

Introduction to Formal Logic by Mark Thorsby

# automatic playing for the 38 videos (click the up-left corner for the list)

source: Mark Thorsby   上次更新日期:2016年1月25日
This course introduces viewers to an introduction to formal symbolic logic. We cover the basics of argumentation, categorical logic, propositional logic, propositional proofs (natural deduction), and predicate logic.
Philosopher John Locke once wrote that "logic is the anatomy of thought." This course follows along that vein of thought in that this course will teach students to analyze and evaluate arguments using the formal techniques of modern symbolic logic.
In our everyday lives, we are confronted with an enormous amount of challenges that require an acute ability to quickly interpret, evaluate, and synthesize information and arguments.
Whether watching television, reading the political punditry of a local newspaper, listening to the well intentioned ideas of a family member, or by being presented with a series of radical ideas by a professor - people everywhere are vying for your opinion and consent and they do so through argumentation.
Some of the arguments we are presented with in life are strong, others are weak, and many are flatly false. The aim of this course is to give students the tool set necessary for diagnosing what is and is not trustworthy within the terrain of reasonable thought.
Like a physician trained in the art of human anatomy, the logician holds the confidence and ability to break apart arguments and peer beneath the ruse of rhetorical device in search of truth.
This course sets students upon a path of finely honed critical skills essential for life in the modern world.

This course explores main answers to the question "when do governments deserve our allegiance?" It starts with a survey of major political theories of the Enlightenment—Utilitarianism, Marxism, and the social contract tradition—through classical formulations, historical context, and contemporary debates relating to politics today. It then turns to the rejection of Enlightenment political thinking. Lastly, it deals with the nature of, and justifications for, democratic politics, and their relations to Enlightenment and Anti-Enlightenment political thinking. Practical implications of these arguments are covered through discussion of a variety of concrete problems.
