Ethical agency Sample Clauses

Ethical agency. Dialectical rationality and ethical xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx argues that the human agent and her participation in the totality of the world are fundamentally and naturally ethical. How could this be so, and how far can it be justified?60 Fundamentally what makes a human being an ethical agent is her dialectically constructed ethical rationality or simply dialectical rationality. For Xxxxxxx, a human agent is naturally capable and acts on the dialectical rationality, although limited or constrained in any given situation. A possible structural explanation of the dialectical rationality starts from Xxxxxxx’s conception of constellationality, developed in relation with his notion of totality. To designate the relationship at the level of Xxxxxxx uses the term constellationality. Constellationality is an ‘over-reaching term to denote a figure of dialectical containment’ between, for example, epistemology within ontology or reasons within causes, some of which ‘may be diachronically or synchronically emergent’ (Xxxxxxx, 2008, p.395). What is peculiar to this notion of constellationality is a kind of constellational relation, i.e. constellational unity, which is distinctively 60 The section will answer to how Xxxxxxx assigns human agency as ethical agency, but the question about its justification will be addressed both in the conclusion to this chapter and in the following chapter. distinguished from (Hegelian) constellational identity where other things, sheer difference or heterology, are subsumed to the idealist identity. Bhaskar calls this constellational containment, or constellational closure. But in contrast, he supports the more open idea of constellational unity, where there is co-constitution between epistemology and ontology, between dialectical and analytical reason, between reasons and causes or mind and matter and between human beings, where ‘[m]utual intra-action and co-mediation in a constellational state … is stressed’ (Norrie, 2010, p.100). One characteristic of constellational unity is that it is only possible through human rationality by its dialectical use. For example, in the case of the duality of structures and agency, Xxxxxxx maintains heterology (sheer difference) between them by arguing for what he calls the hiatus, or hiatus-in-the-duality, which denotes a gap or moment of discontinuity between them but because of which reductionism is avoided. However, human agency has an ability to switch between two different perspectives, what Xxxxxxx call...
