Explaining Political Disagreement(ISBN=9780521053990) 2025 pdf kindle mobi epub 下载 百度云盘

This book considers a variety of explanations of why political

disagreement is so extensive and persistent. The author examines

variants of the 'contestability' and 'imperfection' conceptions

which have dominated political theory: the idea that political

disagreement is so pervasive because of its value-ladenness; that

key political concepts are essentially contested; that those who

occupy very different political positions fail to understand each

other. He argues that we need to develop a framework which borrows

elements from both schools of thought, presupposing some form of

moral cognitivism, while recognizing that many political disputes

cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of every reasonable person.

Within such a framework he shows how empirical models can be

constructed which give an active role not only to the agent's

reasons for his or her beliefs, but also to other psychological and

sociological considerations.

书籍介绍

This book examines a number of different accounts developed by philosophers and political theorists to explain why political disagreement is so extensive and persistent. The author argues that moral and political questions can have correct answers, but that not every reasonable person will necessarily be satisfied with these answers. He develops a framework that gives a role to the individual's reasons for his or her beliefs, but also to psychological and sociological factors, to explain the intractability of political disputes.
