| 520 | _a"As reflected previously, this work is a modified book version of my PhD thesis, which I completed in 2011 at the Australian Catholic University (ACU) of Canberra Campus ... This book discusses some logical premises or propositions of two themes and their conclusions regarding the traditional Moanan-Tongan concept offatongia, obligation, and its relation to ancient Greco-Roman deontic, obligation. Accordingly, the premise of the first theme considers fatongia as a worldview, philosophia, or weltanschauung, which is embedded in fundamental human values and behaviors such as right or justice,dykaisyn (totonu), and democracy, demoskratos or pule‘aetokolahi. The premise of the second theme considers fatongia with its specific aim,siate, of happiness, fiefia, as embedded in fundamental human values and behaviors. The logical conclusion of these two themes, with their premises, asserts that fatongia as a worldview with its siate of fiefia is implanted in fundamental human values and behaviors"--Preface. | ||
