Presenter: Class member Dr. Peter Mehl wraps up our study of Michael Sandel's book entitled Justice: What's the Right Thing to Do? Peter will review Chapter 10 "Justice and the Common Good," pp. 244-269.
In this final chapter, Sandel develops his own communitarian view of the good society, a view in which he includes explicit moral and religious arguments and asserts his belief that government can't be neutral on difficult moral questions. He concludes with four proposals for a politics of the common good.
Sandal advocates a politics of moral engagement as a more inspiring ideal than a politics of avoidance and believes that it is also a more promising basis for a just society.
