就读过的章节言,感觉霍布斯最精彩,也似乎最可信的部分,在于他用一种'工具理性'为国家的正当性作辩护—假如我们要走出互相提防的囚徒困境,那么便要设立一个国家;人性是否'本恶'并非重点,重点是自然状态下我们没有理由相信他人的善意—这似乎确实是一个可以被普遍接受的促使我们设立国家的理由。但令我难以信服的是,'工具理性'是否足以支撑'利维坦'的结构及(出于同样的自利条件)臣民应无条件服从统治的论证?霍布斯似乎还需要一系列的经验性主张都成立才能构成利维坦建立之后我们无条件服从的理由(否则就会重回自然状态!),而这些主张是否成立需要实证研究支持(而很多根据我们已有的经验证明是错误的)—这大概也是那些'反直觉'的论证不那么精彩的原因。从中可以体会到用'工具理性'作论证进路的优点和局限
评分太厉害了 legal theory值得好好反复看
评分太长了,计划今年啃 === 划掉今年 === 好多论点都有点过时了,一个他们那时代的认识论和政治百科全书吧算是。以后再也不读这种大部头的外文版了,太累了,而且读着后面忘着前面。
评分MacPherson的导言有点意思
评分封面很有意思,真的很anti Aristotle。但同时methodology又还是很Aristotle啦。
Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) was born in Malmesbury. Entering Magdalen Hall, Oxford, in 1603, he took his degree in 1608 and became tutor to the eldest son of Lord Cavendish of Hardwick, afterwards the Earl of Devonshire; his connection with this family was life-long. His first interest was in the classics, and his first published work a translation of Thucydides, in 1628. An interest in science and philosophy soon developed, heightened by extended travels in Europe in 1629-31 and 1634-37. This led to his great project of a political science. His first verson of this, The Elements of Law, Natural and Politic, was privately circulated in 1640, when Parliament was hotly disputing the king’s powers, and Hobbes fled to Paris, where he stayed for eleven years.
A second version, De Cive, was published in 1642, and the third, Leviathan—the crowning achievement of his political science—in 1651. It was so influential that it came under widespread attack and was in danger of condemnation by the House of Commons. Hobbes perforce lived quietly and published little more on political matters. At the age of eighty-four he composed an autobiography in Latin verse, and within the next three years translated the whole of Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad.
“During the time men live without a common Power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called Warre”
Written during the turmoil of the English Civil War, Leviathan is an ambitious and highly original work of political philosophy. Claiming that man’s essential nature is competitive and selfish, Hobbes formulates the case for a powerful sovereign—or “Leviathan”—to enforce peace and the law, substituting security for the anarchic freedom he believed human beings would otherwise experience. This worldview shocked many of Hobbes’s contemporaries, and his work was publicly burnt for sedition and blasphemy when it was first published. But in his rejection of Aristotle’s view of man as a naturally social being, and in his painstaking analysis of the ways in which society can and should function, Hobbes opened up a whole new world of political science.
Based on the original 1651 text, this edition incorporates Hobbes’s own corrections, while also retaining the original spelling and punctuation, to read with vividness and clarity. C. B. Macpherson’s introduction elucidates one of the most fascinating works of modern philosophy for the general reader.

昨天忽然想到了前一段时间读《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》时注意到的:《利维坦》中的某些话是直接从修昔底德那里抄来的。不加引号地引用别人的话这种事情霍布斯干得熟极而流,施特劳斯在《霍布斯的政治哲学》中指出了他对亚里士多德大段大段的“借鉴”。此外,我也曾挑出了他跟柏拉图...
评分 评分罗马法规定,有一种罪人,叫做“神圣的人”,其特点在于: (1)他不可被用来祭祀, (2)人人可以杀死他而不被判处谋杀。 其中(1)表明他是神法的例外,(2)表明他是人法的例外。 在古罗马,人法和神法是相互联系在一起的。在人法中处死一个人,必然是作为给神的献祭的,...
评分人的本性是利己,所谓的利他来自两个原因:一是,如果你的利己行为伤害了他人的利益,会遭到他人的打击,这会导致利己的失败,所以有时候为了达到利己的目的,必须利他;二是,一个人利己的能力有限,团结了更多人就有更大的力量来实现利己。 国家和保险公司的性质有点像。我们...
评分在第三十二章“论基督教体系的政治原理”中,霍布斯首先强调自然理性是上帝的传谕之道的一部分,而传谕之道中的其他部分——超乎理性的东西——尽管无法被自然理性证明或证伪,但其实本质上与自然理性之间不存在冲突。超越理性的东西与理性的东西之间的看似矛盾,只可能是因为...
