Description
Summary:Man is a being unto himself.A human person is a project in the process of making himself or herself.Since man is a being-in-the world, he has a responsibility to the whole world especially to all the human beings.Ours is a 'we-existence',a pro-existence (an existence for others).We complete our communitarian existence in the process of creating more just and human structures. The more just our structures are, the more human they become, and they help the human beings to reach that state of growth in which there is an experience of existing-for-one-another.The process of humanisatlon calls for the end of those structures which promotes dehumanisation. In the world of daily experience men are made use off or purposes which hardly befits them as human beings. In this paper our effort will be to analyze the proper response of philosophers towards economic inequality.
