The Heart and Its Attitudes.Stephen Darwall - 2024 - Oxford: Oxford University Press.details This book is a systematic treatment-perhaps the first-of “attitudes of the heart”-remorse (versus guilt), love, trust, gratitude, personal anger (versus righteous anger), jealousy, and others-and their role in mediating personal relationship, attachment, and connection. This is obviously interesting in its own right, but it also shows how heartfelt attitudes mirror more extensively studied “reactive attitudes” of guilt, resentment, and blame (“attitudes of the will”). Whereas the latter mediate moral relations of mutual respect and accountability, attitudes of the heart are the (...) Download Export citation Bookmark
The Best and the Rest: Idealistic Thinking in a Non-Ideal World.David Wiens - manuscriptdetails Models of idealistic societies pervade the history of political thought from ancient times to the present.

Neither account adequately grounds the right to hunger strike because both misrepresent the hunger strike as noncoercive and (...) Download Export citation Bookmark

An Analysis.Göran Duus-Otterström & Andrei Poama - 2024 - Jus Cogens 6 (1):29-46.details Several critics have argued that private prisons are not only problematic because of their worse effects but also intrinsically wrong. This article analyzes two prominent arguments for this claim: the representation argument and the condemnation argument. The conclusion is that these arguments fail to show that there is something intrinsically wrong about private prisons. This is especially true if the arguments are extended to non-profit private prisons under social injustice contexts that states are responsible for. In such cases, non-profit private (...)
