This third edition of Arguing About Political Philosophy is the most complete, up-to-date, and interdisciplinary anthology of its kind. Its selections cover classic philosophical sources such as those from Thomas Hobbes and John Rawls, important works in political economy from thinkers like Adam Smith, Friedrich Hayek, and Karl Marx, and the writing of cutting-edge contemporary theorists like Debra Satz, Jason Brennan, and Ta-Nehisi Coates.
The third edition has been substantially revised to make it more suitable for a growing number of courses in philosophy, politics, and economics (PPE). New topics and new readings help to explore the intersection of these three disciplines at a theoretical level, and how they help us to think about challenging practical problems like regulating sweatshop labor, reconciling immigration policy with social justice, and thinking about the virtues and limits of democracy.
In addition to offering sections on foundational concepts, political economy, and contemporary debates in political philosophy, the third edition contains a brand-new section on political ideologies, with a new introduction and accessible readings setting out the main features of liberalism, socialism, conservatism, and libertarianism.
The updated Instructor and Student Resource website www.routledge.com/cw/zwolinski offers valuable resources for instructors and students alike, including sample quizzes, exams, and writing assignments, extensive study questions for each reading, and an online version of the What's Your Political Philosophy self-assessment.
Key Updates to the Third Edition:
- Includes more interdisciplinary readings from economists and political scientists.
- Contains readings that make the volume a better fit for new programs in philosophy, politics, and economics (PPE).
- Offers a better representation of diverse ideological perspectives.
- Provides new coverage of emerging topics like reparations for past injustice, sweatshop labor, immigration policy, effective altruism, and the value of democracy.
- Updates the important parts on the book's website: sample quizzes, exams, and writing assignments, extensive study questions for each reading, and an online version of the What's Your Political Philosophy self-assessment.
