R. M. Hare, one of the most widely discussed of today's moral
philosophers, presents a selection of essays in which he brings
ethical theory lucidly to bear on moral problems arising in
politics. He examines our obligation to obey the law; the limits of
legitimate lawbreaking, civil violence, and war; rights of various
sorts and their supposed conflict with utility; justice,
distributive and retributive; and care of the environment. His
arguments are amply illustrated by specific examples. The volume
substantiates the author's claim that help with such problems can
be found in philosophy, and particularly in his own ethical theory,
which draws together the best insights of Kant and utilitarians.
