Passions and Emotions: NOMOS LIII

James E. Fleming, "Passions and Emotions: NOMOS LIII "
English | ISBN: 0814760147 | 2012 | 350 pages | PDF | 1089 KB

Throughout the history of moral, political, and legal philosophy, many have portrayed passions and emotions as being
opposed to reason and good judgment. At the same time, others have defended passions and emotions as tempering
reason and enriching judgment, and there is mounting empirical evidence linking emotions to moral judgment. In
Passions and Emotions, a group of prominent scholars in philosophy, political science, and law explore three clusters
of issues: “Passion & Impartiality: Passions & Emotions in Moral Judgment”; “Passion & Motivation: Passions & Emotions
in Democratic Politics”; and “Passion & Dispassion: Passions & Emotions in Legal Interpretation.” This timely,
interdisciplinary volume examines many of the theoretical and practical legal, political, and moral issues raised by such
questions.
