درباره این کتاب:

An Introduction to Rights is an accessible and readable introduction to the history, logic, moral implications, and political tendencies of the idea of rights. It is organized chronologically and discusses important historical events such as the French Revolution and the abolition of slavery in the American South. It deals with historical figures, including Grotius, Paley, Hobbes, Locke, Bentham, Burke, Godwin, Douglass, and Mill and covers contemporary debates, including consequentialism versus contractualism. Hohfeld’s notoriously slippery distinctions among rights are lucidly explained by the use of examples. Rights come in various typesA€– human, moral, civil, political, and legalA€– and claims about who has a right, and to what, are often contested. What are rights? Are they timeless and universal, or merely conventional? How are they related to other morally significant values, such as well-being, autonomy, and community? Can animals have rights? Can fetuses? Do we have a right to do as we please so long as we do not harm others? Professor William A. Edmundson addresses these issues from both philosophical and legal perspectives. As an undergraduate text, An Introduction to Rights is well-suited to introductions to political philosophy, moral philosophy, and ethics. It may also be used in courses on political theory in departments of political science and government and in courses on legal theory in law schools. William A. Edmundson is Regents’ Professor of Law and Philosophy at Georgia State University. He is the author of Three Anarchical Fallacies (Cambridge), co-editor of TheA€Blackwell Guide to the Philosophy of Law and Legal Theory, and a subject editor for The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy.
