This 8 page report
discusses Scottish philosopher and writer David Hume’s
(1711-1776) thinking on the “obligation of promises” as expressed
in his “Treatise of Human Nature.” Hume believed that
participation in a just society requires an individual’s
obligation to the promise to support that government. It is not
based on fear but what Hume referred to as “enlightened
self-interest.” Hume was certain that freedom and exchange in
the marketplace depend on obligation to promises. As a result,
compliance to government is also required in order to keep one’s
promises. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
