David Hume's Politics: a distinct reconciliation between Liberalism and Conservatism.
Resumo
The aim of this dissertation is to argue that Hume's political theory can provide a theoretical procedural configuration that reconciles the skeptical principles of secular Conservatism in its form with the core values of Classical Liberalism in its content, To demonstrate the compatibility of conservative and liberal concepts within this framework, we will demonstrate the connections between Hume's formal principles and his substantive political ideas. This theoretical framework establishes criteria and limits to be considered in the articulation and justification of political arguments Causality and habit are key concepts for understanding Hume's explanation of conventions, his strong defense of moderation, and his critique of political rationalism. We aim to show that it is possible to systematize criteria for a prudent activity of governing in a theoretical framework that filters empirically consistent arguments from metaphysical ones.
