Description
What is the role of moral values in socialism? Can socialism be 'scientific' or is it essentially an ethical doctrine? Is there any place for morality in Marxism? These questions are central to much recent controversy on the Left. Socialism and Morality contains a variety of original and important contributions to these debates by a distinguished group of philosophers and political theorists. All the papers were specially written for this volume and make a lively, wide-ranging and valuable contribution to the current debate.
