Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Feminist contractarianism -- Selflessness and loss of self -- Mens rea -- Righting wrongs: the goal of retribution -- The common faith of liberalism -- The contractarian explanation of the state.

Contractarianism in some form has been at the center of recent debates in moral and political philosophy. Jean Hampton was one of the most gifted philosophers involved in these debates and provided both important criticisms of prominent contractarian theories plus powerful defenses and applications of the core ideas of contractarianism. In these essays, she brought her distinctive approach, animated by concern for the intrinsic worth of persons, to bear on topics such as guilt, punishment, self-respect, family relations, and the maintenance and justification of the state. Edited by Daniel Farnham, this collection is an essential contribution to understanding the problems and prospectus of contractarianism in moral, legal and political philosophy.
