영어 초록
This note reviews the development of the ethics of Keynes.
His ethics is influenced by the ethics of G.E Moore, namely the ideal utilitarianism. Thus he thinks that the first
principle of the goodness is the love among people and the enjoyment of beautiful objects. Keynes asserts that, using the logic of probabilities, one can judge the right action which enhances the love and the beauty. The Treatise on Probability is the logical basis of the ethics of Keynes.
Keynes has confidence on the human reason and claims for the individual rational judgement on the right actions. This is in line with the individual rationalism. However, his logical basis for the ethics is shaken by the incidence of two World Wars. His confidence on the human reason is shaken. He also admits the subjectivity of the probability judgement in response to Ramsey’s critics so that the objective reasoning for the ethical judgement is shaken. For all, he seems to stick to his ethics of individual rationalism.
His ethics is similar to that of Christianity in that it emphasize the love among people and the freedom from
the laws and conventions. His ethics is different from that of Christianity in that it has too much confidence on the human reason. Christianity notes the imperfect human reason and emphasizes the necessity of healing the
imperfectness by the guidance of Holy Spirit.
