Organizing Morality
In: Worldview, Band 15, Heft 7, S. 17-18
My first reaction to James Reston's remarks is to marvel at their naiveté Here is an exceedingly sophisticated working journalist, the author of that extraordinary series on Mao's China who conducted a brilliant interview with Chou, indulging himself in a banal sadness. So I would respond initially by saying "of course."Of course history is and has been immoral. It has always been the scene of self-interested conflicts between classes and nations. Of course people of religious faith kill one another, usually reserving the greatest enthusiasm for a slaughter conducted in the name of different interpretations of the same God, as in Ulster, but also avenging one deity against another, as in West Pakistan's genocidal attack on the Hindu minority of Bangladesh. I would add only that these theologically inspired enormities are usually based upon a substratum of class or national interest too.

The Dialectic of Morality and the Morality of the Dialectic
In: Telos, Band 33, S. 85-92
ISSN: 0040-2842, 0090-6514
Originally published in Italian in Critica Marxista (1964, Jan-Feb, 113-130). A reconsideration of Marxist ethics: the problem of morality is presented as the overcoming of reified praxis through the revolutionary praxis expressed in the morality of the dialectic. The contradictions between the individual & society, & between internality & externality are reviewed. The antinomy between moralism & utilitarian realism is analyzed. The following aspects of the dialectic as a destructive & totalizing process are emphasized: (1) the dialectic is the destruction of pseudo-concreteness, (2) it unmasks contradictions, & (3) it expresses the movement of human praxis.

Morality in Religious Reformations
In: Comparative studies in society and history, Band 18, Heft 4, S. 438-457
ISSN: 1475-2999
Religious reformations are normal historical occurrences. Some stress salvation by faith or through love of the deity. Others have stressed morality either as the primary obligation of the believer or as one of the primary obligations. An examination of a number of such reformations should further our understanding of the historic pattern of religions. A complete survey of the subject is not possible here, but a preliminary investigation is a necessary first step and does produce significant conclusions. The concern here is not with the mere presence in religions of morality, which all the historic religions exhibit. Rather the interest is in those movements that have laid a particular stress on morality and the absolute necessity of moral behavior.
Teaching War and Morality
In: News for Teachers of Political Science, Band 32, S. 11-11
ISSN: 2689-8632
In the summer of 1979 the Division of Education Programs of the National Endowment for the Humanities sponsored an institute on "War and Morality" at the University of Massachusetts/ Amherst. The institute was attended by 20 college teachers, including nine political scientists, all of whom have since developed courses on "War and Morality" or added material relating to this subject to existing courses on their own campuses. The following essay is a report on the 1979 summer institute and its local follow-up.When in 1949 the United Nations International Law Commission was asked to codify the law dealing with the methods and means of warfare it declined the task for the reason that "war having been outlawed, the regulation of its conduct has ceased to be relevant".

Perceptions of Morality
In: Worldview, Band 23, Heft 5, S. 12-17
For all the inspiration Henry Kissinger is supposed to have received from the tradition of "power politics" and "political realism," he does not, at least on the surface, employ the notion of morality in a way that is quite in keeping with that tradition. In White House Years, Kissinger displays little of the skepticism and embarrassment about mixing moral judgments and foreign policy decisions that is characteristic of political realists.
