Natural Law Theory : Assignment_2
INTRODUCTIONNatural law is a theory in which it is considered that every human being has some inherent rights which is given by nature and god and they are understandable by every human being as the are human reasons. Natural law was first noticed at the time of Greek philosophy and it draw a logical conclusion by binding human being from moral behaviour which are made by mankind and reality that is created by god. Natural law theory is applied in ethics, politics, religious morality and in civil theory (Craig, 2012). This theory has seen many Changes in a period of time, some things were added in it and some were eliminated from it because change isanother law of nature.MAIN BODYNatural law theory is a very old theory so from time to time it has seen some changes andbecause of which it has many confusing meanings. It is basically a type of moral theory but alsoconsidered as legal theory, but in depth their logical interpretation is different. In old time is wasconsidered that nature is different and law is different because law vary from country to countrybut nature always remain same in the world (Wright, 2016). Because of this difference law ofnature is less obvious and more paradox. At that time it was noticed that natural justice can beachieved through political justice, so it was concluded by some thinkers that to make a naturallaw, correct political community should be chosen so they make a law that should be followedby everyone. But some thinkers were not agree with it as they thought that best way cannot beachieved by making a law. After this some theories suggest that universal law it something thatis not for one day or day, it is for eternal, it does not have a birth date and it does not have anyend This natural theory is completely different from science theory and should never be confusedwith it. This theory can be divided in some parts, one of them is theory of morality (Tarlock,2013). Moral theory focuses on truth-value and believe in acting according to general truthwhich can be valid as a universal law and its main focus is on moral norms. Other part of naturaltheory is related to its core thinking which is nature of world and nature of human being. Arational nature of human being should be followed as a standard of moral behaviour should bemaintained by every human being (Sison, and Fontrodona, 2012). Another perception of naturaltheory is that there is difference between notion of law and notion of morality. But there aresome situation in which morality does not work and law have higher authority as everything
