Political Philosophy, Here and Now honours David Miller's
remarkable contribution to political philosophy. Over the last
fifty years, Miller has published an extraordinary range of work
that has shaped the discipline in many different areas, including
social justice, democracy, citizenship, nationality, global
justice, and the history of political thought. His work is
characterised by its commitment to a kind of theorising that makes
sense to the people who have to put its principles into practice.
This entails paying close attention to empirical evidence from the
social sciences, but also results in a willingness to take the
everyday beliefs of lay people seriously in its theorising. The aim
is the construction of a political philosophy that can be radically
reformative, but that nonetheless is justifiable and realisable
here and now. This book brings together a range of papers from
leading political theorists concerning many different aspects of
Miller's work, on topics including national responsibility and
global justice, self-determination, collective responsibility,
human rights, immigration, market socialism, national identity,
citizenship, multiculturalism, public goods, the political thought
of David Hume, and the methodology of political philosophy. It
includes a chapter by Miller himself, which develops his own
distinctive approach to political theorising. The volume concludes
with a complete bibliography of David Miller's published work.
