Motivating Political Morality by Robert E Goodin
Knowing what is the right thing to do is one thing. bringing yourself to do it is often quite another. This book is addressed to those who ask, 'Why should I be moral?' It explores strategies and tactics for evoking moral responses from people, especially in political contexts where so much is at stake.
"a splendid tract detailing some of the arguments by which we can persuade people to act morally." Times Higher Education Supplement
