Abstract:
In the late twelfth and early thirteenth century, increasingly sophisticated ethical thought made its way out of the theology texts and into pastoral guides and sermons, making it possible for a greater number of ethically informed lay people to share pastoral responsibility. One exercise of this responsibility was fraternal correction, through which a person, motivated by charity, rebukes a neighbor for his or her wrongdoing. This essay argues that the practice of fraternal correction is in fact a sort of blaming, since it includes a judgment of blameworthiness and opprobrium for the offender

Abstract:
Starting with some important remarks of Hohfeld’s on legal claims, this chapter introduces and focuses on rights of the kind accrued by the parties to informal agreements, among others, which it labels “demand-rights.” One with a demand-right has, centrally, the standing to demand an action from the right’s addressee. This point is clarified as, among other things, demands are distinguished from requests and commands. H. L. A. Hart’s discussion of a promisee’s rights is reviewed, and demand-rights are further characterized by means of a series of equivalences of Hohfeld’s type. Some possible f

This book concerns the nature and basis for the fundamental ethical relation between human beings. Beginning from the fundamental example of trust, it is argued that this relation arises from our interdependence and mutual vulnerability, which then gives us power over the lives of other people.

This demand is characterized as silent, radical, one-sided, and unfulfillable, as it cannot be satisfied by just doing what the other asks; requires us to act unselfishly; is non-reciprocal; and should not be experien

This chapter explores how the gig economy works. It looks at some of the most important platforms and illustrates their central role in shaping transactions between consumers and workers. Digital work intermediation, in particular, is key to understanding the gig economy: here, platforms’ sophisticated algorithms connect workers and customers, and exercise ongoing control over the ensuing relationships. The chapter then charts the astonishing variety and global growth of the gig economy, with a particular emphasis on how platforms make money, from improved matchmaking to regulatory arbitrage.

Initially, they sought internment far from Europe, but the Dutch were not interested.

Demand for pharmaceuticals is unique because it is determined by four parties: the patient, who is the direct consumer of drugs; the physician, often serving as the consumer’s agent, who considers drugs as an input in the production of health for the patient; insurers, who usually pay most of the cost of the drug that is purchased; and the pharmacist, who often decides which version of a drug to dispense, fills the prescription, and frequently provides the patient with health counseling and additional information on the drug’s action, administration, and side effects.

Abstract:
This book is the first extended treatment of demand-rights, a class of rights apt to be considered rights par excellence. Centrally, to have a demand-right is to have the standing or authority to demand a particular action from another person, who has a correlative obligation to the right-holder. How are demand-rights possible? Linking its response to central themes and positions within rights theory, Rights and Demands argues for two main theses. First, joint commitment, in a sense that is explained, is a ground of demand-rights. Second, it may well be their only ground. The first thesis is d

Moreover, necklacing was originally developed as a tool to sanction political threats under apartheid, whereas t

The analysis underscores the relationship of culture and self-deception.

How are perpetrators, as theorized political subjects, constructed? The answers underscore the influences of desire, envy, and mimetic rivalry. Genocide, mass atrocity, and enemy-making a

This chapter provides a solution to the demand-right problem. It argues that joint commitment is a ground of demand-rights. A joint commitment in the sense in question is not a conjunction of personal commitments. It is formed when two or more people together commit them all. Given this ground, the right’s addressee is subject to a peremptory normative constraint. There is also a clear sense in which a right-holder can view the action to which he has a right as his. Further, the directed obligation of the right’s addressee can plausibly be said to be willed into being by those who jointly comm

Abstract:
It is very difficult to store electrical energy in sufficient quantities, and transmission over long distances results in unacceptable losses. Generation of electrical power therefore has to match demand. The peaks in electrical demand usually come from domestic rather than industrial consumers. Generating systems that are best left running continuously, such as nuclear, are used to meet the base load, which is the demand that does not change with time of day or season. Generally, anything involving a steam cycle is better suited to meeting base load demand. Gas turbines that can respond quick

Abstract:
The chapter analyzes how welfare democracies expanded higher education systems. It argues that the “massification” of higher education across the OECD has had starkly different impacts on occupational structure and returns depending on countries’ institutional environment. The chapter identifies four ideal types in terms of the employment prospects and wage premia associated with higher education: credentialism, mismatch, social investment, and “winner takes all,” which correspond closely to the four types of welfare democracies. Employment and wage data drawn from the European Community House

Abstract:
This chapter engages the important recent work of Gene Outka on the relationship of love and justice. Outka’s work examines the relationship of universal love and impartiality. This topic can be explored in the legal context by asking what love requires in the process of the judicial administration of justice. How do the requirements of universal love shape the way we understand the demands of legal impartiality in specific cases? The chapter places Outka’s ideas in conversation with Watts v. Watts, an intriguing Wisconsin Supreme Court case involving the breakup of a couple who held themselve

Abstract:
What does it mean, and how can we respond to the demand, to do justice to the other? This book answers that question by developing a critical, but productive, dialogue between deliberative theory and deconstruction. Two key claims emerge: doing justice to the other demands that we maintain an ethos of interruption; and, such an ethos requires a democratic form of politics. The deliberative approach is key for thinking through the procedures that can help institute and maintain an ethos of interruption (an ethos that itself inspires the deconstructive approach). The deconstructive approach is c

Abstract:
Consequentialist theories of the right connect the rightness and wrongness (and related notions) of actions with the intrinsic goodness and badness of states of affairs consequential on those actions. The most popular such theory is maximization, which is said to demand of agents that they maximize the good, that they do the best they can, at all times. Thus it may seem that consequentialist theories are overly demanding, and, relatedly, that they cannot accommodate the phenomenon of going above and beyond the demands of duty (supererogation). However, a clear understanding of consequentialism

Abstract:
Abstract How much does rationality constrain what we should believe on the basis of our evidence? According to this book, not very much. For most people and most bodies of evidence, there is a wide range of beliefs that rationality permits them to have in response to that evidence. The argument, which takes inspiration from William James’ ideas in ‘The Will to Believe’, proceeds from two premises. The first is a theory about the basis of epistemic rationality. It’s called epistemic utility theory, and it says that what it is epistemically rational for you to believe is what it would be rationa
