Opis

Respect, Pluralism, and Justice is a series of essays which sketches a broadly Kantian framework for moral deliberation, and then uses it to address important social and political issues. Hill shows how Kantian theory can be developed to deal with questions about cultural diversity, punishment, political violence, responsibility for the consequences of wrongdoing, and state coercion in a pluralistic society.

Recenzje

displaying the clarity and inventiveness for which Hill's work is renowned ... some excellent suggestions about responsibility and punishment, adapting Kantian lines of thought, and Kant himself could have learnt a great deal from Hill's more empirically informed applications of his ethical ideas.
