The Common Good

Meer over het boek

Amitai Etzioni argues that a society cannot thrive without a commitment to the common good, challenging liberal views on individual rights and civic responsibility. He delves into pressing ethical questions, such as the moral duty to contribute more to our communities, the dual nature of privacy as both a right and an obligation, and the balance between free speech and protecting children from harmful content. Through these discussions, Etzioni emphasizes the importance of fostering a shared sense of responsibility in contemporary society.
