Ethics & moral philosophy

Paperback. Determining which moral principles should guide political action is a vexing question in political theory. This book argues that John Locke's potential contribution to this debate - what Tuckness terms the 'legislative point of view' - has long been obscured by overemphasis on his doctrine of consent. Num Pages: 224 pages, 1, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: HPQ; HPS; JPA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 12. Weight in Grams: 314.
