Nicole Hassoun

A Minimally Good Life (eBook, ePUB)

What We Owe to Others and What We Can Justifiably Demand

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Hassoun argues that concern for our common humanity requires helping others live minimally good lives when doing so does not require sacrificing our own ability to live well enough. This, it suggests, provides a unified answer to the question of what we must give to, and can demand from, others as a basic minimum.
