Les moyens justifient-ils la fin ?

Débat philosophique

(Do the Means Justify the End? - Philosophical debate)


With Andrea Cavazzini (Researcher in Political Philosophy, focusing on the theories of the Far Left), Bertrand Ogilvie (Professor of Philosophy and Psychoanalysis at Université de Nanterre, author of La seconde nature du politique [The Second Nature of Politics], 2012) and Gabor Tverdota (Researcher in Utopian Philosophy and Anthropology).

If your cause is just, does it matter how you achieve it? Must you use only moral means? Can you transform the world without getting your hands dirty? This debate between high-minded ethicists and cynical pragmatists might just be voided by the lack of overall purpose, of a cohesive utopia. It could be that all we have left are the here-and-now solutions.
