Some restrictions imposed on free Blacks in the United States on the eve of the Civil War were:

  • They could not strike a white person, even in self-defense.
  • They were prohibited from owning dogs, firearms, or liquor.
  • They were not allowed to testify in court against whites.

<h3>What were the restrictions of Free Blacks?</h3>

Even though there were Blacks who were free, they still did not have equal rights to White people such that they were not even allowed to strike a White person in self-defense.

They could not even testify in Court against Whites and any ownership of weapons of self-defense were not allowed to them.

Contrasting Hobbes and Locke Match the philosopher with the idea that he supported. Life is "nasty brutish and short Thomas Hobb
victus00 [196]

Answer:

<u>Thomas Hobbes </u>

Life is "nasty, brutish, and short."

People are naturally selfish  

<u>John Locke </u>

People are naturally reasonable

People have "natural rights"

Rulers must respect rights

Explanation:

Both of them were well known English philosophers in the 17th century.  They both have different view of government.

Thomas Hobbes was a prominent supporter of a Monarchy system, while Locke was a prominent supporter of the democracy.

Hobbes believed that people are naturally only look out for themselves. So, He saw people's effort to seek conquest and power as something natural. In order to survive , he believe that a society need to be led by a strong leader that have absolute power over his citizen.

Locke on the other hand, believed that people do 'selfish' act because their situation force them to. This often force kind hearted people to act selfishly in order to survive. He had an opposing view compared to Hobbes. He believed that a perfect government should be ruled by its people. The government exist only to fulfill the needs and goals of the citizens , not the other way around.

What is the basis of aristotelian ethics?
Ivan
Aristotle's writings have been read more or less continuously since ancient times, and his ethical treatises in particular continue to inflence philosophers working today. Aristotle emphasized the importance of developing excellence (virtue) of character (Greek ethikē aretē), as the way to achieve what is finally more important, excellent conduct (Greek energeia). As Aristotle argues in Book II of the Nicomachean Ethics, the man who possesses character excellence does the right thing, at the right time, and in the right way. Bravery, and the correct regulation of one's bodily appetites, are examples of character excellence or virtue. So acting bravely and acting temperately are examples of excellent activities. The highest aims are living well and eudaimonia a Greek word often translated as well-being, happiness or "human flourishing". Like many ethicists, Aristotle regards excellent activity as pleasurable for the man of virtue. For example, Aristotle thinks that the man whose appetites are in the correct order actually takes pleasure in acting moderately.

Aristotle emphasized that virtue is practical, and that the purpose of ethics is to become good, not merely to know. Aristotle also claims that the right course of action depends upon the details of a particular situation, rather than being generated merely by applying a law. The type of wisdom which is required for this is called "prudence" or "practical wisdom" (Greek phronesis), as opposed to the wisdom of a theoretical philosopher (Greek sophia). But despite the importance of practical decision making, in the final analysis the original Aristotelian and Socratic answer to the question of how best to live, at least for the best types of human, was to live the life of philosophy.
