Respect plays a prominent role in contemporary moral philosophy, as
well as our every-day moral thought. Ordinary discussion about
morality is often framed in terms of demands for respect or
complaints about being disrespected, yet basic questions about the
concept and role of respect are frequently overlooked. Here,
leading philosophers present their latest ideas and fresh
perspectives to point research on the topic in new directions.
Following an introduction to the historical rise of respect as a
central concept in moral discourse, Part I addresses the
fundamental questions of what respect is; its nature and basis.
Part II then examines questions in moral theory, for example what
exactly ought to be respected, what role respect plays in morality,
and which different types of respect are appropriate and morally
significant. Part III concludes with the practical application of
requirements of respect, with implications for significant moral
issues of our time including environmental ethics, social justice,
disability, bioethics, and more.
