Rezensionen
'With this book, [Miller] implores us to consider how much better things could be if we all - and in particular, if people in key institutional roles of power - stopped to attend to the purposes of our institutions and the choices we make within them. The mere possibility of social institutions as Miller envisions them changes the normative landscape. In this sense, the book not only offers a powerful general theory and great deal of fodder for contemporary philosophical debates, it also serves as a model for how careful philosophical inquiry allows us to better understand who we can and should be.' Alexa Forrester, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
