Communitarianism and Its Critics Summary

Communitarianism and Its Critics by Daniel Bell

Many have criticized liberalism for being too individualistic, but few have offered an alternative that goes beyond a vague affirmation of the need for community. This book, written in dialogue form, offers a defence of a distinctively communitarian theory which should stimulate interest and debate among scholars of political theory and those approaching the subject for the first time. The book should be of interest to academics and undergraduate students of political theory, political philosophy and moral philosophy.

Appendices: some questions about justice and the community, Will Kymlicka; a reply, Daniel Bell.
