More about the book
The book offers a fresh interpretation of the moral philosophies of Hume and Kant, emphasizing a crucial shared achievement in their constructivist approach to justice. Westphal argues that examining their differences obscures this common ground, which avoids reliance on moral realism, anti-realism, or irrealism. This perspective highlights the foundational principles of justice as rooted in constructivist thought, providing a nuanced understanding of both philosophers' contributions to moral theory.
