Abstract

The paper describes how a simple idea, that of a new foundation of moral philosophy taking Galilean new natural philosophy as a mode, lead to unforeseen developments once the competition between a Cartesian and a Newtonian paradigm emerged. Those developments are reconstructed in Hume, Smith, Ferguson.
