Description

Explore a unique philosophical perspective on economic rights with Self-Realization and Justice: A Liberal-Perfectionist Defense of the Right to Freedom from Employment. Published by Routledge as part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series, this work presents a new way to look at the right to abstain from the paid economy. Rather than relying on traditional notions of fairness, the author argues for this right based on the normative ideal of self-realization. This approach connects modern political theory to a long history of ethical thought, drawing links to the ideas of Aristotle, Smith, Hume, and Marx. This book is designed for readers interested in deep political and social debates. It provides a rigorous defense of a contentious ideal, making it a valuable addition to any collection focused on contemporary philosophy, sociology, or legal and social sciences. It addresses real-world political questions through a structured, academic lens, offering a fresh perspective on how individuals relate to the modern economic system.

Key Features

Part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series for academic depth and rigor.

Engages with ongoing debates in political, social, and philosophical spheres to address real-world issues.
