Thrasymachus or The Future of Morals is a philosophical book written by C. E. M. Joad. The book explores the concept of morality and its future in society. The title of the book is derived from the character Thrasymachus in Plato's Republic, who argues that morality is simply the interest of the stronger party. Joad examines the nature of morality and its role in society, questioning whether it is an objective truth or a subjective construct. He considers the impact of religion, culture, and individual experience on moral beliefs and values. The book also delves into the practical implications of morality in society, including the relationship between morality and law, the role of punishment, and the concept of justice. Joad argues that a society's moral framework must be based on reason, rather than tradition or authority, in order to be just and sustainable. Overall, Thrasymachus or The Future of Morals is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of morality and its place in society. It challenges readers to question their own moral beliefs and consider the implications of different moral frameworks for the future of society.1926. British philosopher, author, teacher, and radio personality, Joad wrote a number of popular philosophical works. Contents: Morality as the Interest of the Stronger; Herd Morality and the New Tyranny of Thought; The New Liberty of Action; and The Coming Clash.
