What does it mean to be in the middle of a pandemic-for me, for my
country, for the world? How do our current inequalities and
injustices become amplified by the demands of the pandemic and
what, if anything, can be done? Who is most impacted-and why does
it seem that so many of the same people are, once again, deemed
expendable and less-than? How do we explain COVID-19 and its
attendant traumas to our children, and what do we teach them about
hope, justice, grief, and the role of imagination in survival? And
once the worst has passed, how do we start again, and what should
we care about as we contemplate individual and collective repair?
In this collection of public and political philosophy, both
well-established and up-and-coming philosophers come together to
address these and other questions born of a devastating pandemic to
which they are neither objective spectators nor observers,
insulated by the passage of time. Indeed, the contributors to this
volume are both grounded in, and immediately affected by, their own
lived realities as source material for the questions that move and
motivate them.
What kind of an emotion is regret? What difference does it make
whether, how, and why we experience it, and how does this
experience shape our current and future thoughts, decisions, goals?
Under what conditions is regret appropriate? Is it always one kind
of experience, or does it vary, based on who is doing the
regretting, and why? How is regret different from other
backward-looking emotions? In The Moral Psychology of Regret,
scholars from several disciplines-including philosophy, gender
studies, disability studies, law, and neuroscience-come together to
address these and other questions related to this ubiquitous
emotion that so many of us seem to dread. And while regret has been
somewhat under-theorized as a subject worthy of serious and careful
attention, this volume is offered with the intent of expanding the
discourse on regret as an emotion of great moral significance that
underwrites how we understand ourselves and each other.
What does it mean to be sad? What difference does it make whether,
how, and why we experience our own, and other people's, sadness? Is
sadness always appropriate and can it be a way of seeing more
clearly into ourselves and others? In this volume, a
multi-disciplinary team of scholars - from fields including
philosophy, women's and gender studies, bioethics and public
health, and neuroscience - addresses these and other questions
related to this nearly-universal emotion that all of us experience,
and that some of us dread. Somewhat surprisingly, sadness has been
largely ignored by philosophers and others within the humanities,
or else under-theorized as a subject worthy of serious and careful
attention. This volume reverses this trend, presenting sadness as
not merely a feeling or affect, but an emotion of great moral
significance that in important ways underwrites how we understand
ourselves and each other.
