A Just Society

de Michael Boylan

"The author sets out the foundation and application of the personal worldview imperative (for ethics) and the shared community worldview imperative (for social philosophy). These form the structure for a rights-based, holistic deontological theory. In the end, A Just Society strikes a balance between extreme liberalism (libertarianism) and those advocating the rule of the general will (utilitarianism), making an important contribution to ethical and political theory and introducing an original approach to public philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.
