Identity, Political Freedom, and Collective Responsibility : The Pillars and Foundations of Global Ethics PDF
by E. Souffrant
Part of the Future of Minority Studies series
Description
Motivated by the observation that our current social and political theories do not properly account for the actual living circumstances of persons living the 21st century, this book calls for a reassessment of the starting points of moral, social, and political philosophy.
Souffrant recognizes that, as it stands, our ethical theories start from a specific conception of the individual.
While he believes that this approach has been helpful, he holds however that the contemporary circumstances regarding the way individuals live their lives, their particular interconnectedness and tacit and active participation in the conditions that affect us all, call for a reassessment of the starting points of moral, social and political philosophy.
