David Hume Enquiry Concerning Understanding | Laws, Actions & Punishments | Philosophy Core Concepts

This is a video in my new Core Concepts series -- designed to provide students and lifelong learners a brief discussion focused on one main concept from a classic philosophical text and thinker.

This Core Concept video focuses on David Hume's work, the Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, and discusses how he views the purpose and functions of laws and punishments, and what the implications of the "doctrine of necessity" are for those.

My videos are used by students, lifelong learners, other professors, and professionals to learn more about topics, texts, and thinkers in philosophy, religious studies, literature, social-political theory, critical thinking, and communications. These include college and university classes, British A-levels preparation, and Indian civil service (IAS) examination preparation
