On the Moral Foundation of a Ruling Authority

De: Antony Peachey

The subject matter of this book is not on ethics, despite containing ethical content. It is not about any moral principles or axioms that might be applied to your personal lives. There will be no discussion on what is good or right for you, what you should think, or how you should act. There will be no argument for the reader in relation to any preferences in personal philosophy or manners of conduct. Neither will there be attempts to define what ethical principles any form of state (ruling authority) ought to adopt, what moral principles any particular social system should be based upon; these are questions of political philosophy and constitute a whole series of other books. The primary focus of this work is only to briefly demonstrate the underlying principle that all ethical theories adopted by any ruling authority must necessarily adhere to - what the foundation (not the particulars) of any ruling authority’s moral philosophy must be.
