Pleasure-seeking was the belief of (Roman)
vampirchik [111]

The answer you're looking for could be a HEDONIST or an EPICUREAN.

"Hedonism" is the general philosophical term for someone seeking pleasure -- though how pleasure was defined differed between different persons.

Epicureans were a particular group in Greco-Roman history that had "pleasure-seeking" as a core belief.

Let's clarify what "pleasure seeking" meant in the original theory of the the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus.  Epicurus (341-270 BC) believed that the universe and all life within it is essentially a random interaction of atomic particles.  So according to Epicurus, human life is what we have while we're living in this form, but there is no afterlife of individual souls.  So he advocated that the best way to live life, while we are alive, was to seek pleasure and avoid pain.  But his definition of "pleasure" was not some wild party, but the most comfortable and fulfilling sort of mental and physical existence.  So he urged living a life of moderation in order to avoid as much pain as possible.  Pursuing highly emotional relationships or stressful responsibilities in society would cause too much mental pain, he thought, so he refrained from such things.  Similarly, eating too much of rich foods can make you sick, or drinking too much leaves you with a hangover -- so the pain isn't worth the initial pleasure you might feel.  Epicurus and his followers lived very simple lives in order to be free of as much mental and physical pain as possible.  

Some have characterized the "Epicurean" way of life as one that says, "Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die!"  But Epicurus himself would not have pursued a lifestyle that sought excessive pleasure through eating, drinking and partying, because too much pain would come along with it..

What are some of the challenges the Philippines has faced since gaining its independence? Select all that apply.
dimulka [17.4K]

The correct options are:

  • military dictatorships
  • rebellions and insurgencies
  • high rates of poverty

After gaining its independence, the young nation faced several problems: the country had to be rebuilt from the ravages of war and reach an agreement with several Japanese collaborators and entrepreneurs to begin their economic development. Meanwhile, the Hukbalahap, a rebel communist army that previously fought against the Japanese, remained active in rural areas. Finally, this threat was addressed by the Secretary of National Defense and later president Ramón Magsaysay, although some sporadic cases of communist insurgency continued to be presented. In 1965, Ferdinand Marcos was elected president, with his wife Imelda Marcos at his side. As the Constitution forbade being re-elected more than twice for the presidential office, at the end of his second term he declared martial law on September 21, 1972. To continue governing by decree, he used as arguments the political division, the tension of the War Cold and the specter of the communist rebellion and the Islamic insurgency in the country. Thus began a dictatorship that lasted more than ten years and was characterized by strict control of the economy and political repression.

The return of democracy and reforms to the government after the events of 1986 were hampered by the national debt, corruption, coup attempts, a persistent Communist insurgency and Islamic separatist movements. Although the economy improved during the administration of Fidel V. Ramos, who was elected president in 1992, the start of the 1997 Asian financial crisis halted these advances.
