Alasdair MacIntyre is one of the most controversial philosophers
and social theorists of our time. He opposes liberalism and
postmodernism with the teleological arguments of an updated
Thomistic Aristotelianism. It is this tradition, he claims, which
presents the best theory so far about the nature of rationality,
morality and politics. This is the first Reader of MacIntyrea s
work. It includes extracts from and synopses of two famous books
from the 1980s, After Virtue and Whose Justice? Which Rationality?,
as well as the whole of several shorter works (one published for
the first time in English) and two interviews. Taken together,
these constitute not only a representative collection of his work
but also the most powerful and accessible presentation of his
arguments yet available. The Reader also includes a summary, by the
editor, of the development of MacIntyrea s central ideas, and an
extensive guide to further reading. Students will find the book a
useful guide to MacIntyrea s case against both capitalist
institutions and academic orthodoxies.
