Ethical egoism philosophy homework help

Assignment from nickkynickky

Ethical egoism is the view that an act is permissible if it maximizes an agent’s self-interest or welfare. One can argue that this view presupposes constraints on an agent’s actions or liberty of action, because it is not in an agent’s self-interest to do acts that are harmful or indifferent to the interests of other agents (i.e., to do narrowly self-interested actions or actions that are not at all other-regarding). Present a cogent argument that considers this idea with reference to Glaucon’s arguments in the Republic for why we have reason to act unjustly, or to disobey moral norms and conventions to do as we please, if we can. 

Plagiarism, or any violation of Hunter College’s policy on academic integrity, will result in the pursuit of an academic or a disciplinary sanction. Papers should be roughly 1000 words in length, double-spaced, and composed in a standard 12-point font. Papers must cite a primary source.

Stylistic suggestions: Exclude any historical or biographical information on the works, or philosophers, under consideration. Avoid clichés, such as “We should always believe in ourselves,” as they detract from developing strong arguments.
