Description
Samuel Scheffler's Boundaries and Allegiances explores the challenges of liberal thought in the modern world. The essays examine how our moral traditions and individual responsibilities adapt to the complexities of globalization and the demands of distributive justice. By considering the responsibilities we have in virtue of belonging to a community and the compatibility of such obligations with equality, Scheffler sheds light on the normative significance of our diverse commitments and allegiances.
