In this wide-ranging investigation of many prominent issues in
contemporary legal and political philosophy, eight distinguished
philosophers and legal theorists (including Matthew Kramer, Hillel
Steiner, Antony Duff, Sandra Marshall, Wilfrid Waluchow, and
Nicholas Bamforth) tackle issues such as the rights of animals and
foetuses, the relationship between law and politics, the
requirements of justice, the demands of practical rationality, the
role of public-policy considerations in legal reasoning, the
fundamental characteristics of legal and moral entitlements, the
appropriateness of compensation as a means of rectifying mishaps
and misdeeds, the extent of individuals' responsibility for the
consequences of their choices, and the culpability of failed
attempts to commit crimes. Together, the eight principal essays in
Rights, Wrongs, and Responsibilities shed philosophical light on
public law, criminal law, and most areas of private law as they
explore the bearings of the three key concepts in the volume's
title.
