This research paper: 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.
