Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
This book is a collection of twelve essays devoted to Michael Boylan's important work in moral philosophy,A Just Society. The collection is thematically organized to mirror Boylan's own volume, so the first half explores fundamental issues of justification in ethics while the second half focuses on issues involving ethical discourse, social justice, and the moral foundations of public policy. In their critical and engaging essays, the authors challenge many of the original and controversial arguments developed and defended by Boylan in his book, and Boylan responds in a lengthy and philosophically rich reply. The book will appeal both to philosophers working on the cutting edge of moral and political theory and to public policy practitioners working to make society more just.

Recenzii
Michael Boylan's book A Just Society challenges old assumptions and advances a new analytical framework for understanding social justice. This important collection provides not only a full and vigorous engagement with Boylan's novel moral-political theory, but also a fresh set of views on the nature, meaning and prospects of a just society today.
This volume is a sharp and comprehensive assessment of Michael Boylan's A Just Society that will stimulate further debate on the timeless topic of justice.
