		A "moral" may refer to a particular principle, usually as informal and general summary with respect to a moral principle, as it is applied in a given human situation.
		Moral rights include the right of attribution, the right to have a work published anonymously or pseudonymously, and the right to the integrity of the work (i.e., it cannot be distorted or otherwise mutilated).
		Moral rights are distinct from any economic rights tied to copyright, thus even if an artist has assigned their rights to a work to a third party they still maintain the moral rights to the work.

		Nietzsche argues that slave morality is born of resentment and that evil is its primary concept, with good as an afterthough.
		In master morality, which is basically affirmative, "good" is primary and "bad" is an afterthought, a term of contempt for what is undistinguished and not noble.
		Slave morality is based on envy (ressentiment) whereas master morality is positive and self-affirmative, and intrinsically good by opposition to bad.

	GradeSaver: On the Genealogy of Morals Essay: The Reactive Nietzsche: Contradictions in the Genealogy of Morals
		In his Genealogy of Morals Nietzsche censures the members of the Judeo-Christian tradition for their "impotence." As a result of their impotence the descendents of this tradition (slaves, as I will call them to maintain some modicum of political correctness), have developed a hatred "to monstrous and uncanny proportions" (33).
		In this genealogy he believes that central place of suffering and the reactionary attitude of the western tradition are derived from essentially artificial conditions.
		This is because the Genealogy of Morals is primarily a reaction to the Judeo-Christian tradition, rather than a discussion of his own, positive philosophy.

		It is this "slave morality" motivated by a spirit of ressentiment that Nietzsche seeks to overcome by a return to the morality of the masters.
		The Genealogy of morals is in fact a genealogy of human weakness and suffering.
		The morality of the weak, in fact, has become so prevalent that many feel it is the only way to live life despite the self-negation and hate inherent in it.

	Nietzsche: Genealogy of Morals
		From the standpoint of the Genealogy of Morals this discovery seems to be substantial: the lateness of it is to be attributed to the retarding influence exercised in the modern world by democratic prejudice in the sphere of all questions of origin.
		The revolt of the slave in morals 2 begins in the very principle of ressentiment 3 becoming creative and giving birth to values—a ressentiment experienced by creatures who, deprived as they are of the proper outlet of action are forced to find their compensation in an imaginary revenge.
		While every aristocratic morality springs from a triumphant affirmation of its own demands, the slave morality says "no" from the very outset to what is "outside itself," "different from itself," and "not itself"; and this "no" is its creative deed.

		...When he criticized Bentham's utilitarianism, it was on the ground that such a philosophy could not satisfy the moral instincts of men, the need for an "ought" that was not identical with the "is," a sense of obligation that was not the same as selfinterest...

		The incompetence of their genealogies of morals reveals itself at the very beginning, where the issue is to determine the origin of the idea and of the judgment "good."
		In connection with the genealogy of morals, this point strikes me as a fundamental insight—that it was first discovered so late we can ascribe to the repressive influence which democratic prejudice in the modern world exercises over all questions of origin.
		The slave revolt in morality begins when the resentment itself becomes creative and gives birth to values: the resentment of those beings who are prevented from a genuinely active reaction and who compensate for that with a merely imaginary vengeance.

		Genealogy of Morals is perhaps the most direct, and therefore easiest to understand, of Nietzsche's books.
		Nietzsche now looks at this alteration in moral meanings, good now becomes associated with the invalids, the cowardly, the meak, the stupid and the ugly and those who are bad are the antitheses of these qualities.
		In short Genealogy of Morals is a fascinating book and a crucial addition to the library of any man who thinks about life and values.

	Etymology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The earliest of attested etymologies can be found in the Vedic literature itself — in the philosophical explanations of the Brahmanas, the Aranyakas and the Upanishads.
		A little later, in the 19th century, the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (a philologist by academic training) used etymological strategies (primarily in On the Genealogy of Morals) in the attempt to show that moral values have origins, using a form of proto-psychology as a foil against which to justify his claims.
		Although many of Nietzsche's etymologies are wrong, the strategy has gained popularity in the 20th century, with philosophers such as Jacques Derrida using etymologies to indicate former meanings of words with view to decentring the "violent hierarchies" of Western metaphysics.

		With regard to a moral genealogy this seems to me a fundamental insight; that it has been arrived at so late is the fault of the retarding influence exercised by the democratic prejudice in the modern world toward all questions of origin.
		The slave revolt in morality begins when ressentiment itself becomes creative and gives birth to values: the ressentiment of natures that are denied the true reaction, that of deeds, and compensate themselves with an imaginary revenge.
		While every noble morality develops from a triumphant affirmation of itself, slave morality from the outset says No to what is "outside," what is "different," what is "not itself"; and this No is its creative deed.

		One promising way to investigate the genealogy of norms is by considering not the origin of norms, but rather, what makes certain norms more likely to prevail.
		Although there has been a great deal of interest in evolutionary ethics among philosophers of science, there is widespread skepticism about such evolutionary explanations of why we have the moral norms we do.
		There is also reason to think that the affective response to distress in others plays an important role in how individuals actually make moral judgments, but that claim requires a separate defense (see e.g., Nichols 2002, forthcoming).

	Genealogy of Morals
		The slave revolt in morals begins by rancor turning creative and giving birth to values—the rancor of beings who, deprived of the direct outlet of action, compensate by an imaginary vengeance.
		A quantum of strength is equivalent to a quantum of urge, will, activity, and it is only the snare of language (of the arch-fallacies of reason petrified in language), presenting all activity as conditioned by an agent—the "subject"—that blinds us to this fact.
		For, just as popular superstition divorces the lightning from its brilliance, viewing the latter as an activity whose subject is the lightning, so does popular morality divorce strength from its manifestations, as though there were behind the strong a neutral agent, free to manifest its strength or contain it.

	The Genealogy of Morals
		However, in Genealogy of Morals, Nietzsche had grown far beyond; here he was able to trace the development of this contrast and the evolution of Christian culture and to support his thinking more systematically, by demonstrating the evolution of value-terms in language, from antiquity.
		slave morality from the outset says No to what is "outside," what is "different," what is "not itself;" and this No is its creative deed." (#10) Nietzsche calls this an "inversion of the value-positing eye;" what it achieves is removal of tension from one's own attainments to an outward point of view and judgment.
		As Nietzsche concludes, "In this way Christianity as a dogma was destroyed by its own morality; in the same way, Christianity as morality must now perish, too: we stand on the threshold of this event." (#27)

		As the title of the first essay indicates, its main point is to distinguish between seeing the world as consisting of good and evil (which is symptomatic of weak morality) and seeing it as consisting of good and bad (which is a sign of strength).
		The difference is more complicated, however, than merely that the weak and strong utilize different moral concepts for the non-good.
