Fair Governance: The Enforcement of Morals is a study of legal
interference with individual preferences and will canvass the
interdisciplinary literature in economics, psychology, philosophy,
and law. It discusses the particular conditions necessary for the
state to legally interfere with our freedom of choice, whether it
be to either satisfy our individual pursuit of happiness
(perfectionism) or to prevent us from making immoral choices
(paternalism). Relatively few philosophers know much of the
parallel literature on this central problem of ethics; while many
legal scholars are acquainted with the psychological literature on
judgment biases, they are frequently unfamiliar with the
philosophical literature on perfectionism. Francis H. Buckley
carefully links these two notions of state power with recent
empirical literature on judgment biases and happiness studies and
surveys the literature, arguing for a nuanced form of social
perfectionism, one which seeks to promote the kind of liberal
nationalism found in the United States.
