The essays illustrate the uses of Scanlon's contractualism by applying it to moral and political problems and in so doing they provide an assessment of the ability of Scanlon's contractualism by applying it to other forms of ethical theory. So, the central questions are: What is the best interpretation of the theory advanced in 'What We Owe to Each Other?'; How does...

Criminal Law and Cultural Diversity
ISBN: 9780199676590 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The idea of a cultural defense in criminal law is often ridiculed as "multiculturalism run amok." To allow someone charged with a crime to say "this is my culture" as an excuse for their action seems to open the door to cultural relativism, to jeopardize the protection of fundamental rights, and to undermine norms of individual responsibility. Many scholars, however, insist that cultural evidence is appropriate, indeed essential, for the fair operation of the criminal law. The criminal law is society's most powerful tool for regulating behaviour, and just for that reason we apply strong...
