HUMAN ACTIONS VS ACTS OF MAN

An act that is performed only by a human being and thus is proper to man. Not every act that a human being does is a
distinctively human act. Some acts that human beings do are performed also by animals, e.g., vegetative acts and acts of
perception and emotion. When a human being does such acts, they are called acts of man but not human acts. Acts of
man are actions shared by humans and other animals while human acts refer to the appropriate actions of human
beings. What makes an act performed by a human being distinctively a human act is that it is voluntary, that is, an act in
some way under the control or direction of the will, which is proper to man. One can therefore identify the human
activity with the voluntary act.

Aristotle’s Distinction of Voluntary and Involuntary Actions


Voluntary Actions - these are acts originating from the individual performing the act using knowledge about the
situations of the act.
A. Voluntary – actions are performed from will and reason.
B. Related to Compulsion - it is considered as mixed of voluntary and involuntary. It is more voluntary if the desire
and choice has been performed and involuntary if it has considered preferences or alternatives. Example: You
are asked to perform a crime and your options are; either you do it and your family survives or you don’t do it
but they will be murdered.
2. Involuntary Actions – are acts done under a) force or coercion and b). ignorance where the doer failed to understand
the effect and feels sorry on the result.
A. Under Compulsion – circumstances which are beyond the control of the agent and contributes none to the action.
Example: A person was kidnapped, hence impossible to resist.
B. Through Ignorance of Particular Circumstances. Example: a man steals and ignorant of the law, arrow or gun shot by
mistake.
