Print on Demand. This book explores ethical and political truths that, despite their simplicity and obviousness, have often remained forgotten or obscured by prejudice. The author argues that our current moral and political systems are flawed because they are based on the false assumption that humans are inherently flawed. Instead, the author asserts, humans are naturally inclined toward cooperation and benevolence. A collection of insights from various sages, ancient, and modern are presented to support this perspective. The author also examines the historical development of political and moral thought, showcasing how early missteps led to the current state of affairs. In doing so, the author prompts a re-evaluation of our fundamental beliefs about human nature, morality, and the role of government. By uncovering the root causes of corruption and injustice, this book offers a fresh perspective on how to create a more just and harmonious society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

Une exploration des lois et de la morale fondées sur les principes naturels.
Ce livre examine comment les notions de justice, d’ordre social et de bien-être humain trouvent leur place dans le cadre du droit naturel. Il propose d’analyser les causes profondes des maux sociaux et d’esquisser une approche cohérente de la gouvernance et de la moralité.
À travers une étude systématique, l’ouvrage questionne les fondements généraux de la politique et de la morale, et propose une vision où les lois reflètent l’ordre naturel. Il présente ensuite une structure en parties et livre des réflexions sur la conduite des sociétés, les institutions et les mécanismes qui soutiennent l’harmonie collective, sans renoncer à une perspective critique sur les erreurs humaines et leurs effets.
- Comprendre comment les lois et la morale s’alignent sur l’ordre naturel et ce que cela implique pour la société.
- Envisager des mécanismes de gouvernance et de sanction fondés sur des principes universels plutôt que sur des caprices politiques.
- Analyser les sources des troubles sociaux et les moyens de les prévenir par une organisation plus juste.
- Explorer un cadre historique et philosophique pour éclairer les choix publics et la conduite civique.
Idéal pour les lecteurs curieux de philosophie politique, d’histoire des idées et de théorie sociale.

Other policies
Please note that we cannot accept cancellation requests once an order has been placed.
All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.
A cancellation, however, is a manual, multi-step request that must pass through several systems. By the time such a request reaches the appropriate stage, the book has almost always been printed, packed, or already dispatched, which makes cancellation impossible.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
Please also make sure your address is correct before ordering as we will no be able to intervene and make changes before the book is shipped.
We can provide digital samples for all our print books ahead, so don't hesitate to reach out.
Returns
As a small publisher we do not have the facilities to resell returned books, so any returned book will be recycled. If the book is damaged or defective please continue with the return process, and thank you for letting us know so that we can improve our products. If you’re returning for another reason, however, please consider whether you could donate or gift the book instead so that it avoids the waste pile.
