How Terrorism Is Wrong: Morality and Political Science
ISBN: 9780195329599 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. What is terrorism? How is it different from other kinds of political violence?

The Ethics of Care: Personal, Political, and Global
ISBN: 9780195325904 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Virginia Held assesses the ethics of care as a promising alternative to the familiar moral theories that serve so inadequately to guide our lives. The ethics of care is only a few decades old, yet it is by now a distinct moral theory or normative approach to the problems we face. It is relevant to global and political matters as well as to the personal relations that can most clearly exemplify care. This book clarifies just what the ethics of care is: what its characteristics are, what it holds, and what it enables us to do. It discusses the feminist roots of this moral approach and why...

Rights and Goods: Justifying Social Action
ISBN: 9780226325880 / Angielski / Miękka / 1989 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Theories of justice, argues Virginia Held, are usually designed for a perfect, hypothetical world. They do not give us guidelines for living in an imperfect world in which the choices and decisions that we must make are seldom clear-cut.
Seeking a morality based on actual experience, Held offers a method of inquiry with which to deal with the specific moral problems encountered in daily life. She argues that the division between public and private morality is misleading and shows convincingly that moral judgment should be contextual. She maps out different approaches and positions for...

Feminist Morality: Transforming Culture, Society, and Politics
ISBN: 9780226325934 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. How is feminism changing the way women and men think, feel, and act?

She then identifies a distinct feminist morality that moves beyond culturally embedded...
