Abstract

HOYOS, Luis Eduardo. Cooperation, Solidarity, and Rational Egoism.: Regarding the Relationship Between Morality and Rationality. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2013, n.46, pp.24-30. ISSN 0123-885X.

The article assumes a conceptual link exists between morality and rationality and attempts to show this link in the context of a critical dialogue with utilitarianism and by showing how rational egoism is self-contradictory. The main question is if such a thing would allow us to simultaneously demonstrate the rationality and the morality of cooperation and solidarity.

Keywords : Egoism; morality; rationality; utilitarianism; cooperation; solidarity.
