What are our obligations to others as people in a free society? Should government tax the rich to help the poor? Is the free market fair? Is it sometimes wrong to tell the truth?

Sandel’s “Justice” course is one of the most po...(展开全部)

《公正:该如何做是好?》内容简介：如果为了减轻病人的痛苦而向他提供致命性的药物，你认为这是对生命的亵渎吗？如果一个人的死能换来多数人的生，你会牺牲那个人面让自己和同伴们活下去吗？如果改进汽车的致命缺陷能挽救很多人的生命，你会愿意为此付出高额的改装费用吗？如果-项合同与传统道德桕冲突，法院判决合同无效，你会认为法院的判决是公正的吗？在这个日益物质化的年代，我们的行为选择总在人性和物质性之间摇摆不定。当我们遇到生死抉择的时候。我们常常因为尊重人的基本权利而违背利益最大化的理性原则；因此我们才会认为，19世纪遇险的英国船员为了存活下去杀死并吃掉一个病弱的奴仆，是有悖人道的。但是，当我们口口声声说个人的生命权利至上时，为什么像福特汽车这样的企业却会给生命贴上价格标签？如果我们尊重个体的权利。但为什么大多数人又会反对同性婚姻？ 我们的社会、我们的思潮、我们的正...(展开全部)

The Right Nation is the definitive portrait of the America that few outsiders understand: the America that votes for George Bush, that supports the death penalty and gun rights, that believes in minimal government and long prison sentences, that pulled out of the Kyoto Protocol.
