Beschreibung

<p><b>From the winner of the 2025 Berggruen Prize</b><br><b><br>A renowned Harvard professor's brilliant, sweeping, inspiring account of the role of justice in our society--and of the moral dilemmas we face as citizens </b><br><br><b>"For Michael Sandel, justice is not a spectator sport," <i>The Nation</i>'s reviewer of <i>Justice </i>remarked. </b><br><br>In his acclaimed book-based on his legendary Harvard course-Sandel offers a rare education in thinking through the complicated issues and controversies we face in public life today. It has emerged as a most lucid and engaging guide for those who yearn for a more robust and thoughtful public discourse. "In terms we can all understand," wrote Jonathan Rauch in <i>The New York Times</i>, <i>Justice </i>"confronts us with the concepts that lurk . . . beneath our conflicts." <br><br>Affirmative action, same-sex marriage, physician-assisted suicide, abortion, national service, the moral limits of markets-Sandel relates the big questions of political philosophy to the most vexing issues of the day, and shows how a surer grasp of philosophy can help us make sense of politics, morality, and our own convictions as well. <br><br><i>Justice </i>is lively, thought-provoking, and wise-an essential new addition to the small shelf of books that speak convincingly to the hard questions of our civic life.</p>
