      Moral Sentiment and Democratic Deliberation

      • 276 pages
      • 10 hours of reading

      Moral and political deliberation can benefit from incorporating passions alongside the pursuit of impartiality, as argued by Sharon Krause. She challenges the notion that impartiality requires emotional disengagement, drawing on Hume's moral sentiment and neuroscience to demonstrate how passions can inform fair decision-making. Krause advocates for a redefined understanding of public reason and sound deliberation, emphasizing that an engaged, passionate approach can lead to genuine impartial justice and inspire active citizen participation in social change and political reform.
