hedonism

Hedonismus

Hedonism mostly refers to a philosophical or ethical current, the basic principle being that only pleasure or the avoidance of pain or suffering is intrinsic or generally valuable. In contradistinction to the philosophical understanding, the term "hedonism" is often referred to as an egoistic attitude to life oriented only to current enjoyments. In this sense, the term hedonism is often used as a depreciation and interpreted as a sign of decadence. The term "psychological hedonism" actually means that man generally strives only for pleasure or pleasure. Hedonismus bezeichnet zumeist eine philosophische bzw. ethische Strömung, deren Grundthese lautet, dass einzig Lust bzw. Freude und die Vermeidung von Schmerz bzw. Leid intrinsisch oder allgemein wertvoll sei. Im Gegensatz zu dem philosophischen Verständnis wird im alltagssprachlichen Gebrauch mit dem Begriff Hedonismus häufig eine nur an momentanen Genüssen orientierte egoistische Lebenseinstellung bezeichnet. In diesem Sinne wird der Begriff Hedonismus oft abwertend gebraucht und als Zeichen der Dekadenz interpretiert. Unter der Bezeichnung „psychologischer Hedonismus“ wird tatsächlich verstanden, dass der Mensch im Allgemeinen einzig nach Lust bzw. Freude strebt.
