Just Freedom by Philip Pettit
An esteemed philosopher offers a vision for the central role of one of our most cherishedand controversialideas.
"Only Philip Pettit could offer us a ‘moral GPS’ that combines philosophical depth with practical advice for decision-making on issues ranging from taxation to social insurance to surveillanceI found Just Freedom to be a lively, compelling, and deeply useful book that opened my eyes to new ways of thinking from both an academic and a policymaking perspective." -- Anne Marie Slaughter, president and CEO, New America Foundation, and Bert G. Kerstetter ’66 University Professor Emerita of Politics and International Affairs, Princeton University
"Just Freedom is a comprehensive vision of politics by one of the leading thinkers of our time. With great clarity and originality, Philip Pettit develops the idea of republican freedom as non-domination and pays close attention to what it means for institutions. To combine theory and practice in that way is a Herculean achievement." -- Rainer Forst, professor of philosophy and political theory, Goethe University, and winner of the 2012 Leibniz Prize
