Bøker av Paul (Assistant Professor of Philosophy Schofield

That we owe duties to others is a commonplace, the subject of countless philosophical treatises and monographs. Morality is interpersonal and other-directed, many claim. But what of what we owe ourselves? This is the first contemporary book-length treatment of the topic of duties to the self. Paul Schofield explores how this theory impacts many areas of moral philosophy, including practical reasoning, moral psychology, and moral emotions. He also discusses manyprominent topics in political philosophy through this lens, including distributive justice, coercion, law, legitimacy, and paternalism.
