Beschreibung
David Schmidtz disputes the idea that rigorous reflection on how to live needs to begin with timeless axioms, rather than with more ephemeral circumstances of time and place. Rather, he argues that theorizing about how to live together should take its cue from contemporary moral philosophy's attempts to go beyond formal theory, and should ask which principles have a history of demonstrably being organizing principles of actual thriving communities at their best.
