Book Synopsis Justice for Here and Now by : James P. Sterba
Book excerpt: James Sterba develops a new conception of justice deriving from libertarianism and then applies it to a wide range of issues: duties to the poor, obligations to future generations, feminist concepts of justice, racism and sexism, sexual morality, environmental ethics, and just war theory. This is a highly original and potentially controversial book that would be ideal for courses in applied ethics, political philosophy, environmental studies, women's studies, and peace studies.
