Lectures on the History of Political Phi - J. Rawls

Harvard University Press 2008 Harvard University Press 496 Rawls, John Paperback / softback

Constantly revised and refined over three decades, Rawls's lectures on various historical figures reflect his developing and changing views on the history of liberalism and democracy. With its careful analyses of the doctrine of the social contract, utilitarianism, and socialism, this volume has a critical place in the traditions it expounds.
