Michael J. Sandel is the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor of Government at Harvard University, where he has taught since 1980. He has taught his undergraduate course “Justice” to more than 15,000 Harvard students over the years, and video footage of the course was adapted into a PBS television series. Sandel graduated summa cum laude from Brandeis University and received his doctorate from Oxford University, where he was a Rhodes Scholar. He served on the George W. Bush administration's President's Council on Bioethics. He lives in Brookline, Massachusetts.
What are our obligations to others as people in a free society? Should government tax the rich to help the poor? Is the free market fair? Is it sometimes wrong to tell the truth? Is killing sometimes morally required? Is it possible, or desirable, to legislate morality? Do individual rights and the common good conflict?
Michael J. Sandel’s “Justice” course is one of the most popular and influential at Harvard. Up to a thousand students pack the campus theater to hear Sandel relate the big questions of political philosophy to the most vexing issues of the day, and this fall, public television will air a series based on the course. Justice offers readers the same exhilarating journey that captivates Harvard students. This book is a searching, lyrical exploration of the meaning of justice, one that invites readers of all political persuasions to consider familiar controversies in fresh and illuminating ways. Affirmative action, same-sex marriage, physician-assisted suicide, abortion, national service, patriotism and dissent, the moral limits of markets—Sandel dramatizes the challenge of thinking through these conflicts, and shows how a surer grasp of philosophy can help us make sense of politics, morality, and our own convictions as well. Justice is lively, thought-provoking, and wise—an essential new addition to the small shelf of books that speak convincingly to the hard questions of our civic life.
( 因为看到刘瑜的这篇书评才跑来看《公正》的相关资料的,相信这一篇会对大家有用) 这是一个暴躁的时代。在微博上我见过几个经济学爱好者吵架,说起来也是真名实姓、有头有脸的人物,吵起来竟然也时不时冒出“你这个傻叉”、“XXX这个蠢货”、“你吃XXX的屎去吧”这样的用...
评分给这本书写书评其实是件很难的事。当然如果我是出版社的枪手,可以毫不费力地东拉西扯出五千字,可是这样做没有意义。因为桑德尔的思想,以及这本书的价值,几句话就可以说清楚了。 《公正》不是严格的哲学著作。桑德尔通过大量的例子,分析了关于理解“公正”的三...

评分 评分现在,人们也在谈公正了。 也许是,人们以前谈惯了发展、GDP、先富起来,现在乍谈起公正来难免谈得有些急功近利,心浮气躁。所以党报特地发表长文要求大家:理性看待社会公正。我虽从没有不理性看待公正,但捧读之后,依然觉得如醍醐灌了顶,茅塞都顿开了。 应该坦...
Weaving together philosophy classics with contemporary conflicts, Professor Sandel deliberated on the implicit assumptions of many taken-for-granted values and propositions, such as freedom, discrimination, human rights and public goods. Sharp in theoretical development and skilful in argument presentation, the book demonstrated a stylish ease in e
评分购买的kindle版,感觉比视频中讲的要详细、深入,可以结合着一起学习,对于备考GRE的逻辑写作很有帮助,因为这本书对于很多到的道德和选择困境都做了多角度的讨论,非常的启发思路
评分想想这大概是我第一本完整读完的英文书,语言浅显话题实际还是蛮适合的。大量的实例与假设消除了哲学论辩的枯燥,既建构框架也提出问题,感到那些问题都在脑子里纠缠过不能回避也决断不了。而寻找答案可能比答案本身更重要。
评分超过「the Blue Sweater」成为2012年对yihan影响最大的书!非常非常建议有经济学背景的人读Michael Sandel的书,并学习他的Justice公开课!@cloudly @cloud_wei
