This book conveys the breadth and interconnectedness of questions
of justice - a rarity in contemporary moral and political
philosophy. James P. Sterba argues that a minimal notion of
rationality requires morality, and that a minimal libertarian
morality requires the welfare and equal opportunity endorsee by
welfare liberals and the equality endorsed by socialists, as well
as a full feminist agenda. Feminist, racial, homosexual, and
multicultural justice, are also shown to be mutually supporting.
The author further shows the compatibility between anthropocentric
and biocentric environmental ethics, as between just war and
pacifist theories. Finally, he spells out when normal politics,
legal protest, civil disobedience, revolutionary action, and
criminal disobedience are morally permitted by justice for here and
now. This highly original and potentially controversial book is
ideal for courses in moral and political philosophy, applied
ethics, women's studies, environmental studies, and peace studies.
