Egoism - extra credit

 Egoism - extra credit 


(Derived from ego in the sense of "I " in Latin)
Ethical theory that claims line and has placed the foundation to the pursuit of self-interest .

The word may also be used by mistake in terms of self- centric , which means that it is overemphasized your value sometimes . The egoism theory , and not a problem with the philosophy of what the ego , there is a more relevant ideas and common sense of interest and personal individual .

Also , I think by humans to promote the interests and welfare of themselves and that they should pursue the completion . However, human beings , because there are times when you do not know where to find their own interests at times , to be aware of its benefits , it admits that it must be India . Ethics many theories have a tendency of selfishness . The hedonism of ancient Greece , I claimed each that said they should pursue the greatest happiness of their own .

Spinoza , claimed to be a line of self-preservation in a different way to rational theorists Baruhi and materialist Thomas Hobbes in the 17th century . In addition , people who have highlighted the concern for the growth and moral conscience of myself , is skinny as in the sense like this . In contrast , there is also consider ethics more social aspects of human beings . In this case , emphasize the importance of the community than the importance of the individual . In the opinion of these , there is a theory cosmopolitanism of the Stoics , the cognate solidarity principle , such as utilitarianism , but these belong to the form that called all , positivist Auguste Comte is altruistic . However , it is not possible to distinguish clearly always altruism and selfishness .
