Description

Challenge the common perception of Malthus as an ogre with this deep dive into his moral philosophy. While many view him through a narrow lens, this work reveals that Malthus shared a profound concern for the labouring poor, much like Adam Smith. To understand his true impact, one must examine the intersection of his moral philosophy, his views on natural science, and his approach to moral and political science. This book provides a comprehensive reconstruction of Malthus's ethical frameworks. It examines his meta-ethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics across several critical social topics. Readers will gain a better understanding of how his views shaped his perspectives on population, poverty, sexuality, war, and slavery. This is an essential read for those studying the history of economic thought and the evolution of ethical frameworks in political science.

Key Features

Reconstructs Malthus's meta-ethics and normative ethics to provide a clearer view of his true intentions.

Explores applied ethics regarding complex social issues including population, poverty, and sexuality.

Analyzes Malthus's views on war and slavery to provide a complete picture of his moral framework.

Connects Malthus's economic theories to his specific views on natural science and political science.

Offers a scholarly perspective that challenges the traditional image of Malthus as an ogre.
