what is BGM?
Today that park is littered with needles and bullet shells.
FanTASTIC! What a brain what a setting
Everything is concious
I saw you first on Bryan Magee's programme on philosophy. Social justice is still very relevant.
Though she provides accurate historical background, it’s Obvious this video was made before the rise of Christian Fascism & the Trump cult
She's hella cute I guess I fell in love with her :D
what if physical disability was chosen by the soul as a life lesson for the soul and retribution from past lives? Should we interfere? If we are ignorant of metaphysics and 'what really is going on' how can we make wise decisions?
You better not change the lamp in a dark room , if you are able and learned how too ! Unless a redacted can as well .
supports male infant circumcision. thinks its fine.
Anyone watching from Central University of Kashmir , Ganderbal India
I think Eckhart Tolle has a lot of the answers.

Spot on, particularly during the current global pandemic. Care and Capabilities all the way, thanks Martha Nussbaum for raising awareness within Ethics, Law, and Inclusion.
How would you summarize this video?
she is so cool
7:25 - the concluding thought: people get together to form societies that result in benefits because of a capacity to love - but this is surely the wrong way to look at it - people's love of societies is a result of societies being the sort of thing that offers benefits.
100 % true:)
The Unexamined Life-Trump and Leftists.
Just discovered Martha Nussbaum. She is inspiring! Thank you for making this clip. I can't wait to read/listen to more of her work.
I just discovered Martha Nussbaum last week. What a treasure.
"Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them." - Orwell It's just plain offensive to suppose that adult individuals need a bunch of careerist bureaucrats to administer nanny-ish (maternalistic) laws in order to correct and redeem them. How is this not gross interference with law-abiding citizens? The definition of an adult is (in my book, at least) someone who has internalised the functions of their mother and father and is thus self-reliant, well-regulated and (barring an emergency) capable of conducting themselves reasonably in society. No doubt Prof Nussbaum detests the idea of the "patriarchy" and its paternalistic arm. Why then does "matriarchy", maternalism and "nanny state" strike her as so appealing? Because - perhaps - she sees history as providing ample evidence that men are morally incomplete, child-like beings? To a feminist, any power which takes the form of a nanny must be preferable to sex-neutral government, I guess.
martha makes such a case for sane and ... even good living. someone to read, for sure
and by living i mean not just OUR own lives, but living TOGETHER
no one cares about this, unless you're going to be a philosophy teacher... or are forced to take a philosophy class in college
Good people care about it...the rest will die unhappy.
lmao fuck the nanny state XD
I like her. I like Judith Butler too, but I like her.
In light of the findings in anthropology the ideas of the social contract, the loner, individualism, self reliability, planed societies, indeed centuries of thought on the left and right are all patiently false.
Broken intellectual thinking. Morality cannot be a duty, it has to be the result of individual choice of action. Morality is objective by identifying life, human life qua life as the standard on which to base it.
what a useless banter, nothing of substance Martha
Where is this video from?
A documentary called "Examined Life". But be warned, the rest of it is "root canal" bad. These are people who have examined everything but their own life, which was the point of Socrates' words.
its amazing how intelligent I find her when she's talking about ancient Greece. but when she talks about contemporary politics its weak as hell.
I believe that is based on a bad sense of justice based on social contract. It's a departure from Aristotle
Could you please qualify your answer?
Was she a he, prior to being a she? I wonder
I have examined life, and i've concluded, that it is not worth living. I would givie my eternal soul if a gasoline taker would explode next to me.
Those who decry the "nanny state" are often those who actually had nannies. (kill the trumpet!)
Kill the state.
@@strelokoperator7509 why not heal it?
@@quaesitor If you're asking whether we should kill or heal the state, your asking what the state is at it core. I'd reckon that a good place to start would be with the state in its earliest forms. One place to look could be Mesopotamia, with the kingdom of Ur. Scholars like the political scientist James C. Scott have argued that the early state relied on the forced labor and migration of its subjects, and the continual enslavement of neighboring people. The accomplishments of early states like writing and monumental architecture were enjoyed mainly by the (small) administrative and ruling class, rather than by its subjects as a whole (Against the Grain). If you look at police brutality, mass incarceration, warfare, trade policies encouraging reliance on sweatshop labor, and the control of movement through national borders, it's pretty clear that this tendency of the state is still in place. Liberalism was supposed to fix this by spreading the benefits of the accomplishments of the state to everyone, but still, people are continuously excluded from those benefits. Even in Norway and Sweden, places liberalism's come close to covering every citizen, it still relies on systems which exclude people from the wealth of the state. For example, Sweden built part of its wealth on the sale of military hardware, notably, to the Nazis. Norway built its wealth on oil, the burning of which is denying wealth (and possibly even life) to future generations. Both those states rely on borders and citizenship papers to determine who's worthy of receiving the benefits of their welfare state. The state is, even at its best, a system which enriches the few through the immiseration of the many.
Her thoughts make me realize that I am a perfect human being....lacking nothing.
Charles Taylor, Martha Nussbaum, Michael Walzer and Isaiah Berlin have provided me with so much food for thought. Thank you for this short and insightful clip.
When one thinks of "the Social Contract" one thinks of Jean Jacques Rousseau, yet he was the one who demanded that his mistress abandon all 5 of their children! Orphanages at that time were just as horrible as can be imagined, and it is most likely that they all shortly died in them. I mean, a man like that hasn't earned the right to even propose any changes to society's structure!You then mention "the real man" who seems to be self-centered and heartless. As you say "isn't bound by any ties to anyone", well that's what we have today with our 50% single parent "families" and breeding narcissists and psychopaths, irresponsible and without a conscience.Personally I would think that the framework was already laid 2000 years ago in Matthew 25:34-40 which basically recognizes that we are all born with the image of God in us, and because of that we require to be treated with dignity, love and respect. And like Christ's parable about the King who chooses those who showed compassion, and love, giving themselves to those who were less priviledged, then says in verse 40 that "to the extent that you did it to even the least of them you did it unto Me", it shows that we have a responsibility to God which has eternal consequences!One only needs to read Jeannine Olson's fine historical work, "Calvin and Social Welfare: Deacons and the Bourse Francaise" to see how "Social Reform" in 16th Century Geneva and Strasbourg started to organize itself.As we've heard said even today, that a Society is judged by how it treats the most vulnerable. This is nothing new, yet it needs to be realigned and adjusted regularly because man would rather focus on city planning and economic achievement.
We're not here to sent someone to Heaven or to Hell... if ideas are worth to be considered you don´t need the example of the writer´s life, but instead your inteligence.
Only a pragmatist would settle for what you state. If a man's (or woman's) philosophy doesn't match their "life style" then the whole "exhortation" is hypocritical!
No, because you can make it match yours. And you can make it yours if you THINK about the idea. Hypocritical is to listen or to read ideas from the point of view of someone who thinks that has the power to condem others based upon their actions. So... are you in the position to consider an idea "bad" just because of the person who said it? This only means that you don´t think about ideas, that you don´t care about Thought, but about morals. An idea is not about the moral life of the person who express it, an idea is about the idea itself, an idea is about Thought.
Timothy 2:12.... just saying. According to that biblical document women don't even has the same right to talk as much as a man. let alone have the right to be treated with dignity.
@mieliav"I try to teach my child that respect must be earned." This could mean your children disrespecting everyone who has not 'earned' their respect!
No it doesn't. Respect is an evaluation with a positive conclusion. Disrespect is another conclusion. You've missed out the stage pre evaluating where one has yet to reach a conclusion. This is the default position.
I agree. The absence of respect doesn't mean disrespect or treating someone with a lack of basic dignity. Many social issues can arise from giving credit where it *isn't* due. The merit system is imperative.
I love how love is her science at a core
It's just HER opinion; it could be right OR wrong. She isn't God, stop worshipping people. No matter how great they seem to be, when they say something that is just an opinion, it is just that. Additionally, humility is a sign of a truly great person. Just stating an opinion and expecting it to be an axiom is self-righteous at best.
I immediately thought of Maslow. It seems to me that his hierarchy of needs supports the capabilities approach.
I think the song in the background is from Tom Waits (Dead and Lovely)
+Rz2750* The director is married to Jeff Mangum, who probably had something to do with the music selections. Neutral Milk Hotel rocks!
Does anyone know the name of the song playing throughout the video?
I think the song is Dead and Lovely done by Tom Waits
no, at "inherent dignity" as a human attribute, she lost me. what is inherent about it? I try to teach my child that respect must be earned.
I don't equate respect and dignity. Basic dignity should be shown to all but respect must be earned. Basically, don't harm people, add unnecessary stress to their lives or try to improve your situation at their expense. My version of expanded Libertarianism. At the society level, we should try to maintain an environment (particularly for children) that provides a standard of dignity.
Similar to how the founders talked about "natural rights"
Bravo, bravo.
Simply Brilliant. I'm so happy to even walk the same halls as she does!
Nussbaum is pretty smart.
If we take Judith Butler seriously then there shouldn't be any problems. According to Butler the individual just has to act differently because our social roles are only and act. If we act like an able bodied man then we won't have any problems.
Why?
How is it the 'dumbest fucking shit ever'? Only a neanderthal would be unable to realize that most too all your actions are in some way or another rigorous imprinted philosophies or a new philosophy created to match or help you adapt to changing surrounding or attitudes.
The person who wrote that probably watched the rest of this documentary. Ugh.
Philosophy is the dumbest fucking shit ever.
Sorry, thought he was talking about Rand!
Really? Can you elaborate or give one example of that "mainstream"?
The intellectual mainstream has always been against her, most of them agree that her arguments are laughable.
Not here by choice
