Fraternity is a feeling, and a moral virtue, but fraternity is also
a political concept. The French Revolution proclaimed an ethical
and political ideal with its three principles: liberty, equality
and fraternity. Since then, western political philosophy has gone
to great lengths to analyse the liberty and equality, but has
ignored, and even disdained, the third part of the revolutionary
triad: fraternity. Forgetting or underestimating fraternity as a
political category is unjustifiable. Political fraternity can help
us to overcome some of the main problems with liberal
egalitarianism and theories of liberty in current social and
political thought, and it contributes to a better understanding of
the real significance of justice and democracy. In this book, Angel
Puyol examines the theoretical and normative challenges of the
political idea of fraternity, its history and meanings, its role in
current political philosophy, its distinction regarding related
concepts - such as relational equality, solidarity or civic
friendship - the place that political fraternity should occupy in
feminist criticism, and its relationship to social justice, global
justice and democracy in modern-day politics.
