The Ownmost Potentiality-for-Being as Ought-to-Be

Year: 2023
Type: article
Abstract: This article attempts to ponder a kind of ethics which could be developed from early Heidegger's thought.I use the subjunctive "could" here because Heidegger never put forward an ethical theory and explicitly rejected to do so in his later thought.Even though Heidegger's later philosophy is indeed incompatible with normative ethics in its prevalent sense, this article argues that his early work at least contains some axiological element, upon which a possible ethics can be founded.Even if we don't know exactly what such a possible ethics might eventually look like, we can at least thereby know what conditions it needs to satisfy.
