Victims and Values by Joseph A Amato
An inquiry into conscience and politics, this text examines fundamental ambiguities, dichotomies and contradictions. The author suggests that humanity should interpret and give meaning to its pains and sufferings. He focuses on the modern mind and the hedonistic society of the 20th century.
JOSEPH A. AMATO is Professor of History at Southwest State University in Minnesota. He has served as a consultant, humanist, and evaluator for several state and national humanities projects. Frequent reviewer, essayist, and the author of several books on ethics, death, and murder, Amato's abiding interest in twentieth century thought is represented by his Mounier and Maritain: A French Catholic Understanding of the Modern World, Ethics: Living or Dead?, and Guilt and Gratitude: A Historical Study of the Origins of Contemporary Conscience (Greenwood Press, 1982).
