Description

What makes us who we are? Are we born good or evil? Do we have free
will? What drives our behaviour and why? Can technology change what it means to
be human? In this thoroughly revised second edition of Emotional Amoral Egoism, Professor
Nayef Al-Rodhan demonstrates the impact of our innate predispositions on key
issues, from conflict, inequality and transcultural understanding to Big Data,
fake news and the social contract. However, it is the societies we live in and
their governance structures that largely determine how we act on our innate
predispositions. Consequently, Al-Rodhan proposes a new and sustainable good
governance paradigm, which must reconcile the ever-present tension between the
three attributes of human nature ('Emotional Amoral
Egoism') and the nine critical needs of human dignity.







Emotional Amoral Egoism is a perfect
resource for enlightened readers, academics and policy makers interested in how
our innate instincts and tendencies shape the world we live in, and how the
interplay between neurophilosophy and policy
can be harnessed for pragmatic and sustainable peace, security and
prosperity solutions for all, at all times and under all circumstances.
