Beschreibung:
Philip Hodgkiss is a sociologist who has been drawn increasingly to moral philosophy and ethics to research the origins of the idea and ideal of dignity. He is the author of The Making of the Modern Mind (2001) and has contributed chapters to various collections and edited volumes.
'Social Thought and Rival Claims to the Moral Ideal of Dignity' deals with the legacy from the classical literature of philosophy and sociology of the theorization of the idea and ideal of dignity, which is explored in the wider context of morality, ethics and the basis of the normative order.
