Resumo

Socratic Eudaimonism gives us a model that a naturalist concerning ethics can follow inorder to establish a natural "goal state" for human behavior. With this goal stateestablished, the notion of value for a human being falls out of the relationship betweenthat goal state and the natural world. Socrates thought that the maximal state offlourishing that a human being can achieve could be understood with respect to thisnatural goal state, and that the actualization of this natural goal is the only standardneeded or possible for the evaluation of everything other than it with respect to goodness,badness, rightness or wrongness.
