Paul Ricoeur's Moral Anthropology

Singularity, Responsibility, and Justice

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines Paul Ricœur's moral anthropology. It shows that his hermeneutical approach to responsibility and justice, focusing on the analysis of the singularity of lived existence, complements recent developments in moral philosophy that tend toward moral relativism and understand responsibility and justice in naturalistic terms.
