Description:This book critically examines 'just liberal violence': forms of direct and structural violence that others may be 'justly' subjected to. Michael Neu focusses on liberal defences of torture, war and sweatshop labour respectively, and argues that (a) each of these defences fails and (b) all of them fail for similar reasons. Liberal defences of violence share several blind spots, and it is the task of this book to reveal them. Neu offers a unifying perspective that reveals the three kinds of defence of violence under investigation as being essentially one of a kind. He demonstrates that each of these defences suffers from serious and irreparable intellectual defects and to articulates these defects in a synthesised critique. The book goes on to accuse liberal defenders of being inadvertently complicit in mutilation, killing and exploitation and highlights the implications of this argument for moral and political philosophers who spend their professional lives thinking about ethical questions pertaining to direct and structural violence.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
