{"product_id":"9783319282763","title":"Renewing Liberalism","description":"This book develops an original and comprehensive theory of\npolitical liberalism. It defends bold new accounts of the nature of autonomy\nand individual liberty, the content of distributive justice, and the\njustification for the authority of the State. The theory that emerges\nintegrates contemporary progressive and pluralistic liberalism into a broadly\nAristotelian intellectual tradition. \n\nThe early chapters of the book challenge the traditional\nconservative idea of individual liberty—the liberty to dispose of one’s\nproperty as one wishes—and replace it with a new one, according to which liberty\nis of equal value to all persons, regardless of economic position. \n\nThe middle chapters present an original theory of socio-economic\njustice, arguing that a society in which every citizen enjoys an equal share of\nliberty should be the distributive goal of the State. It is argued that this\ngoal is incompatible with the existence of large disparities in wealth and\neconomic power, and that (contra conservative\nand libertarian economic arguments) such disparities are harmful to the overall\nhealth of national and global economies. \n\nThe final chapters provide an\noriginal argument that the State has both a moral duty and a moral right to\npursue this program of socio-economic justice (contra conservative and libertarian moral arguments), and that only\nthe measures necessary to implement this program lie within the morally\njustifiable limits on the State’s authority. \n\nThough primarily a political\nwork, it spans most areas of\npractical philosophy—including ethical, social, and legal theory; and\nmeta-ethics, moral psychology, and action theory. And though fundamentally a\nphilosophical work, it incorporates research from a number of fields—including decision\ntheory, economics, political science, and jurisprudence; primatology,\nneuroscience, and psychology; and history, anthropology, sociology, and\necology—and is sure to be of interest to a wide range of scholars and students.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Year: \u003c\/strong\u003e2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint: \u003c\/strong\u003eSpringer International Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFormat: H\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eWeight (Gram): 9221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"James A.
