Autorenporträt
Edward Westermarck was a Finnish philosopher and sociologist, renowned for his pioneering work in the field of moral and social anthropology. Born on November 20, 1862, in Helsinki, Finland, Westermarck is particularly revered for his comprehensive examination of moral concepts across various cultures, as elaborated in his seminal work 'The Origin and Development of the Moral Ideas' (1906 - 1908). This magnum opus provides an in-depth comparative study of morality, contending against the dominant theories of moral relativism and instead positing an evolutionary stance on the formation of moral precepts. Westermarck's approach combined empirical observation with a critical perspective on the role played by social and biological evolution in shaping human ethical behaviour. His meticulous analysis drew further attention to the intersection of sociology, anthropology, and ethics, thereby establishing him as a significant figure in early 20th-century social science. Westermarck also extended his research interests to the study of marriage and familial structures, which further cemented his reputation as a sociological trailblazer. His scholarly impact extends beyond his writings, as Westermarck held teaching positions in both Finland and the United Kingdom, influencing generations of thinkers in the realm of ethical philosophy and social anthropology. Westermarck's death on September 3, 1939, marked the end of a career that left an indelible imprint on the scholarly understanding of the origins and functions of human morality.
