| Abstract: | "This book makes an argument for pluralizing political philosophy, thereby focussing specifically on economic and ecological inequalities. By reducing the current marginalization of a range of traditions and approaches in political philosophy, especially as it is practised at universities in the Global North, political philosophy will have access to a richer range of theories. The chapters in this edited volume illustrate the wide range of perspectives that exist to analyse economic and ecological inequalities. In addition to critical discussions of liberal egalitarianism and green liberalism, contributing authors also offer discussions of Māori philosophy, ecofeminism, Confucian political philosophy, an ethics of care, Ubuntu philosophy, Buen Vivir, and hybrid approaches. In addition, other chapters offer meta-theoretical discussions of the reasons for global justice scholars to work towards a more inclusive agenda and approach; they examine what explains the canon in political philosophy; and they discuss what the scope of political philosophy is, or should be. The volume closes with four shorter chapters that provide some meta-theoretical reflections and make suggestions on how to further pluralize political philosophy"-- Provided by publisher |
