Özet:

 


Alasdair MacIntyre, with his book After Virtue: A Study in Moral Theory tries to show how we move away from Aristotelianism, and the problems of the moral and political life of modern cultures as a result of this departure. His impressive historical reading in After Virtue continues in his other works with making his Thomistic direction clear. Through his work, he draws attention to the strengths of Aristotelian ethics within rivaling different ethical approaches. His aim in his recent work, Ethics in the Conflicts of Modernity: Essay on Desire, Practical Reasoning, and Narrative is to show that we can handle our life even today by depending on the Aristotelian terms. In this way, he tries to revive Aristotle. For, as he rightly pointed out, the reason of the disappearance of the Aristotelian philosophy from the stage of history is the fact that Aristotelian terms were not able to guide everyday lives of ordinary people. MacIntyre, with paying attention to Marx’s critics of capitalism, wants to revive Aristotelianism. He thinks that the social practices we build with Aristotelian terms will open areas of resistance that do not conform values of advanced modernity, within this modernity. What is important in these practices is “common good”. The agents carry out their potentials, their natures with this common good. What needs to be done is to discipline the wishes, in this good way of life according to goods, that is, to virtues. As the result of this discipline, we learn the reasons to justify what we have decided, what we have done, so that we can make our own doings intelligible for the other members of the community. MacIntyre thinks that we can implement this Aristotelian outline to our lives and gives some important answers to Bernard Williams’s critique of Aristotle, who is one of the most important moral philosophers of this age. In this work, we will consider the reading of MacIntyre’s Neo-Aristotelian reading by paying attention to his latest work.
