Jason Hanna

In Our Best Interest

A Defense of Paternalism

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In Our Best Interest argues that it is permissible to intervene in a person's affairs whenever doing so serves her best interest without wronging others. Jason Hanna makes the case for paternalism, responding to common objections that paternalism is disrespectful or that it violates rights, and arguing that popular anti-paternalist views confront serious problems.
