Product Information

Facing Up to Scarcity offers a powerful critique of the nonconsequentialist approaches that have been dominant in Anglophone moral and political thought over the last fifty years. In these essays Barbara H. Fried examines the leading schools of contemporary nonconsequentialist thought, including Rawlsianism, Kantianism, libertarianism, and social contractarianism. In the realm of moral philosophy, she argues that nonconsequentialist theories grounded in the sanctity of "individual reasons" cannot solve the most important problems taken to be within their domain. Those problems, which arise from irreducible conflicts among legitimate (and often identical) individual interests, can be resolved only through large-scale interpersonal trade-offs of the sort that nonconsequentialism foundationally rejects. In addition to scrutinizing the internal logic of nonconsequentialist thought, Fried considers the disastrous social consequences when nonconsequentialist intuitions are allowed to drive public policy. In the realm of political philosophy, she looks at the treatment of distributive justice in leading nonconsequentialist theories. Here one can design distributive schemes roughly along the lines of the outcomes favoured - but those outcomes are not logically entailed by the normative premises from which they are ostensibly derived, and some are extraordinarily strained interpretations of those premises. Fried concludes, as a result, that contemporary nonconsequentialist political philosophy has to date relied on weak justifications for some very strong conclusions.

"The essays are thorough and engaging...Recommended. Researchers and faculty." -- W. Simkulet, Park University, CHOICE "Throughout the book...if sound, her criticisms threaten to undermine entire theories... Combined with the fact that the book is unuually engaging - Fried's style is both refreshingly personal and suprisingly funny - this makes Facing Up to Scarcity a worthwhile read for anyone interested in a least two of its key themes." -- Susanne Burri, London School of Economics and Political Science, Economics & Philosophy, "Throughout the book...if sound, her criticisms threaten to undermine entire theories...
