Description

Exploring the complex relationship between individual responsibility and distributive justice, this collection of essays challenges prevailing norms in normative political theory.

Contributions from established experts and emerging scholars examine how liberal societies can foster conditions for personal responsibility, while also addressing questions about the fairness of outcomes based on past choices. The book sheds new light on these pressing debates in political philosophy.

Of interest to researchers and students in political and moral philosophy, this collection offers a nuanced analysis of the role of responsibility in theories of justice.
