Martha Nussbaum and Politics (Thinking Politics)
Sinopsis
Providing an overview of the political and
ethical philosophy of Martha Nussbaum, this
book presents the ideas of this significant
philosopher and shows how her thought, while
rooted in the traditions of classical
philosophy, illuminates a number of current,
controversial issues. The book takes a
chronological approach and aims to show how
Nussbaum8217sthought has continually grown and
developed. It takes the reader through her views
on ethics, political philosophy, feminism and
women8217srights, LGBT issues, animal rights,
religious tolerance and accommodation,
contemporary politics, and global justice. It
also explores contested areas of her thought,
such as the extent to which she is a
perfectionist liberal, challenges to her view
that religion merits special accommodations,
utilitarian objections to the capabilities
approach, criticisms of her brand of liberal
feminism, and cosmopolitan objections to her
nation-state-based liberal conception of global
justice. Each chapter focuses on a book from a
different stage of her career, starting with her
first book, The Fragility of Goodness and ending
with her most recent, The Cosmopolitan Tradition.
