If Sandel supports Montesquieu's view that no act beneficial to oneself is acceptable when it comes at a price to others, then he must condemn Zionism. Rousseau does not adequately answer Montesquieu. Sandel offers an answer to the dichotomy Montesquieu and Rousseau through moral relativism. In his metaphor of obligations pointing inwards or outwards, the only arbitrator is self interest. Thus, when it suits you or when you consider yourself desperate enough the obligation points inwards, and you are permitted to harm humanity and save your group. Conversely, when you are not desperate and can afford to be altruistic, the obligation can point outwards. Sandel would likely agree that is not morality, only a self-referenced pragmatism. It seems, from what its possible to make out from a grainy video, that Sandel leaves the question open, though perhaps with a hint as to which direction he himself points. In the case of Palestine, Sandel is clear that Zionists chose obligations that point inwards, choosing to sacrifice others who had done them no harm in order to escape those who had in fact done them harm - centuries of European anti-Semites. Sandel appears to suggest there is something wrong with this model of morality, arguing that if we disown the wrongs of our "fathers" then we must disown also what was good about them and what good they bequeathed us. In other words, if we deny group affinity in one case in order to escape responsibility, then we must deny it in all cases even when their is good in them. Else it is indeed moral relativism.

By bringing up Australia, POWs, and slavery, indicates that Sandel recognises the settler colonial parallels with Israel. The entire thrust of the debate does in fact proceed on the tacit acceptance that a significant historical injustice has been committed by Zionists against Palestinians. Indeed, the forceful speaker named Svee does not reject the reparation by denying injustice was committed, but by arguing that reparation is impractical, also claiming this would detract from addressing the issues of today. His argument is adequately met by the lady from South Africa. Moreover, a philosopher and in particular Sandel could not possibly in good conscience and faithfulness to an honest reading of moral philosophy agree with the commenter Svee. Even a utilitarian would argue, as the South African lady argued, that the greater good is served through acknowledgment and reparation.

I'm obsessed with his speeches

Legend.

Here we all are in 2024, a couple months' away from the U.S. vote for president and many other representatives, etc., and this 2014 talk is even more urgent; if we were a market society then, we are definitely more so now, putting democratic societies on the brink of destruction. Scary.

The law of return and the right of return..that question wasn’t answered!

no one appreciates what an amazing philosopher Mr.Sandel is, or the benefits we gain from watching and listening to his opinions. Instead, we waste our time watching stupid entertainment shows on youtube. What a pity. Unbelievable.

Economic investigator Frank G Melbourne Australia is following this very informative content cheers Frank 😊

We are what we have done. I belive that by rewarding with money and proper education about the value of money can be good. They can get the habit of reeding and understand the value of money it's just something you can echange for videogames and maybe they'll just want to buy more books. I belive that this subject it's very subjective about the education those kids receive from their environments. They can even understand sooner that money can't realy buy everything and that there are bigger things. I belive that seeing the money as bad or good, sends the message you can be good or bad. When money it's just money. You can be driven by money and be good. You can want to have more money to buy more books. (I lament that I didn't read more, to have a better capacity of explaining my view) And they see us working for money from the very beggining, they understand what hapens around. Giving them the chance of felling what is money, I belive will make them just smarter. Of course there will be kids that will understand the wrong way and maybe cheat by reading smaller books and pretending they read when they just read some summaries. But that just happens in everything. We are underestimating the capacity of the kids of chosing the good way.

A better incentive than just paying the kids to read would be to pay kids to write a review for each book they read. That would also be a check if they actually read the book and if they actually understood the meaning of the book. They will not get paid unless they do propper work. Just paying people to attend is not a good idea regardless of the excuse you might make to justify it.

Professor Michael I deeply resonate with all of your work and I am beginning to read all your books. I hope one day I can get into Harvard Law to collaborate with you. All the best.

I have listened to Dr. Sandel's lectures for several number of times with a significant degree of fascination. I am fully intrigued about this one on Adam Smith as I have been grappling with how I can get more insight and understanding on the theory of moral sentiments as well as Adam's writings on the nature and causes of wealth of nations. I can just say that this lecture is a wonderful addition to my limited understanding on economics more generally. Thank you Dr. Sandel.

Another great teaching about morality value from Prof. Sandel, as it always be! Market can fail in many ways, but human virtue always shines.

Im not related to Miss Green lufkin court house is wicked gov thiefs

Great Conversation! Buy this man's books!!

55:00 I once saw a lecture from a recovered drug addict and he talked about the importance of helping people who are in the recovery process. He said "beeing clean is like receiving a truck load of gold and helping others is giving some of the gold away but the truck is magical - when you go bak you'll find even more gold!". Autruism is a habit that grows with practice and not a short supply good.

Being following prof sandel from cameroon 🇨🇲 for three years now and I extremely competence with the knowledge and skills gotten from prof lectures.

if Jews who live in Brooklyn can move to Israel after 2000 years, Palestinians, who's parents were born in Palestine, can return to Palestine

It is a treat to listen to Prof. Sandel always 😊

Wonderful to listen to you

This guy is fantastic.

I was hoping I could find Sandel speak on Adam Smith and look what I found. Thank you to all who make these videos possible.
