Public Morality and Liberal Society

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the complexities of public morality, Harry M. Clor explores its justification and practical accommodation within a liberal society. The book is structured in five parts, addressing ongoing controversies in American public opinion, defending a public standard of morality, and analyzing recent themes in public morality discourse. Clor critiques the dominant libertarian and egalitarian liberal perspectives and contrasts traditional ethical views on pornography with contemporary feminist critiques, contributing to the understanding of morality in modern society.
