YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

One of philosophy’s toughest questions is how to determine right and wrong. Can we derive moral rules from facts about human nature and the world?

In our upcoming Mini Philosophy interview, A.C. Grayling argues that we can – some moral truths are obvious once we acknowledge basic human needs.

So, what do we owe each other as human beings?

We all know there are fundamental ways we should treat one another. Yet, we require documents to outline and define what these basic human rights must be to ensure that they are upheld.

That need comes from recognizing the suffering caused when these rights are denied. Understanding these realities provides a clear foundation for moral responsibilities and ethical treatment of others.
