Abstract

Cilj je ovoga diplomskog rada dati pregled normativnoetičke teorije Marthe C. Nussbaum, kojom
ona želi pokazati kako su emocije kognitivne te na koji način nam one mogu biti od koristi u javnoj
sferi, u etici i društveno-političkom životu. Kognitivno-evaluativna teorija odnosi se, dakle, na
tezu autorice da su naše emocije kognitivne te da obuhvaćaju ono do čega nam je stalo.
U prvom dijelu dat ću prikaz njezina revidiranog neostoičkog stava kojim konkretizira svoju
poziciju i proširuje ju u deskriptivnom odnosu na stoike. Normativno daje potpuno drugi stav o
vrijednosti i koristi emocija za opću dobrobit ljudi i društva. Drugi i treći dio su prikazi emocija
samilosti i ljubavi te načina na koji nam one mogu koristiti kao mostovi i alati prema pravednosti
te kao korisne društvene emocije.

Abstract (english)

The main goal of this graduate thesis is to give an overview of the normative ethical theory of
Martha C. Nussbaum, in which she wants to show how emotions are cognitive, and how they can
be useful to us in the public sphere, ethics and socio-political life. Cognitive-evaluative theory
therefore refers to the author’s thesis that our emotions are cognitive and that they encompass what
we care about.
In the first part, I will give an overview of her revised neo-Stoic attitude, which concretizes her
position and extends it in a descriptive way in relation to the Stoics. Normatively it gives a
completely different view of the value and use of emotions for the general well-being of people
and society. The second and third parts are overviews of the emotions of compassion and love and
how they can be used as bridges and tools for justice, and useful as social emotions.
