The Moral Commonwealth : Social Theory and the Promise of Community Paperback / softback
by Philip Selznick
Paperback / softback
Description
Philip Selznick's study of moral and social theory establishes the intellectual foundations of an important new movement in American thought: communitarianism.
Emerging in part as a response to the excesses of American individualism - particularly rampant during the 1980s - communitarianism seeks to restore the balance between individual rights and social responsibilities.
The Moral Commonwealth attempts to explain and justify this communitarian turn and give it a liberal interpretation.
