Surely, every man at least once in his lifeI heard these words: “You must!” or “You must!”. And often they sound in the same context. But, nevertheless, what unites the concepts of "duty" and "obligation"?
So, start with a word that has morebroad definition. And this is a debt. The obligation, in other words, and the funds that are transferred to the borrower by his lender with the condition of further return along with the remuneration (that is, with interest).
It is customary to distinguish between several types of debt - national, state (external and internal), municipal, corporate, personal, public and moral.
What is the duty? In essence, synonymous with debt.This word refers to actions that are unconditional to perform. There are also other synonyms - necessity and duty. So the use of both these words in the same context can be considered correct and permissible.
In this document, the concept of "duty" and "obligation"stand side by side, in the first part of the 59th article, to be more precise. It says that the defense of the Fatherland is the duty and duty of a citizen of the Russian Federation. Why is that? Well, the history of such a formulation is rooted in the socialist past.
Then the Motherland (that is, the Fatherland) took care oftheir people. It was given free education, medical care, places in kindergartens and even real estate - housing. Pensioners were paid pensions and paid their benefits. Homeland guaranteed the integrity and reliability of bank deposits to each and everyone. The risk of inflation was minimal.
And for all this, people gave the so-called debtHomeland, which, by the way, was also a plus for people. For example, service in the Armed Forces of the USSR is the real defense of the Fatherland, duty and duty. But it was very honorable.
It is worth noting the topic, whichtouches on things like moral duty and duty. The fact is that this is a special category of ethics that determines the attitude of a person to society and to other people. Debt is a moral task that a person formulates for himself, focusing on personal principles and promises made to himself. Such debt may be parental, sons, companionable, fraternal, friendly, etc.
More often, people give themselves promises concerninghis work. By all means help those in need, for example. Or cure the patient, no matter how neglected his case. Find a criminal, even if he is the most dangerous. Such a duty may be social, military, patriotic, medical, judicial, investigative.
All of the above refers to the moral requirements, acting as a person’s responsibility placed on his shoulders by himself.
Выше было достаточно ясно рассказано о том, что combines the concepts of "duty" and "obligation". In fact, when a person makes such moral demands on himself, this characterizes him from the best side, speaks about his conscience, which is a reflection of consciousness and a sense of moral responsibility for human behavior. It is also often called our “internal regulator”, helping to perform certain actions and behave in a certain way.
This is the “determinant”, which always, with the help of an inner voice, tells us what is good and what is bad, and helps to do the right thing.
What unites the concept of "duty" and "obligation"? One more word. And this is shame. There is a vivid example.
Suppose a person made promises to himself alwayswhatever helps parents. Once he had a difficult period - in the literal sense of the word, an overnight stay at work, round-the-clock work, reporting, and sheer fuss. And finally, he gets to the house, and all he needs is a bath, food and sleep.
But suddenly his parents call and ask for help.Suppose you pick up from the store of building materials, because they bought something heavy, and you can’t get through to a taxi. What does a man do? With great difficulty, overcoming wild fatigue, goes to help them.
Spending time and energy, he returns, butfeels, surprisingly, in a good mood. He fulfilled his moral duty, did not disappoint loved ones and kept his promise, once given to him, and he is well on his heart. But if he refused? There would be a sediment. He would be ashamed, because without his participation, the subconscious would “weigh” his act in accordance with his conscience. “But I promised,” he will only sigh.
So, what unites the concepts of “duty” and “obligation” is understandable. Are there any differences? It is believed that yes. And there are also explanations for this statement.
It is believed that debt is closely related towith justice. Often this judgment is even defined as an explanation of the concept itself. “Debt is restoring balance in relations between several people,” it sounds like that. That is, in essence, only the person who occupied (not necessarily money) can be.
Proponents of this opinion assure thatTo take a synonym for this concept of the word "obligation" should not be, since this, in turn, is a formal agreement to perform certain actions under specific conditions. However, in certain cases, concepts really need to be distinguished. Some people with a lack of conscience often manipulate others, using phrases like “You must!” And “You must!”.
However, it will be difficult to dispute one thing: both one and the second concept is directly related to morality. And this is a fact.
