The essays in this volume offer an approach to the history of moral and
political philosophy that takes its inspiration from John Rawls. All the
contributors are philosophers who have studied with Rawls and they offer this
collection in his honor. The distinctive feature of this approach is to address
substantive normative questions in moral and political philosophy through an
analysis of the texts and theories of major figures in the history of the
subject: Aristotle, Hobbes, Hume, Rousseau, Kant, and Marx. By reconstructing
the core of these theories in a way that is informed by contemporary
theoretical concerns, the contributors show how the history of the subject is a
resource for understanding present and perennial problems in moral and
political philosophy. This outstanding collection will be of particular
interest to historians of moral and political philosophy, historians of ideas,
and political scientists. The essays in this volume offer an approach to the history of moral and
political philosophy that takes its inspiration from John Rawls.
