Unifying several decades of his own philosophical thinking, Saul Smilansky presents the idea that many important aspects of our moral world are absurd. His conception of 'ethical craziness' follows the idea of various elements of morality being highly counterintuitive--and seemingly and resiliently absurd--but apparently inescapable.
Protecting Life is about the moral principles, at the individual and institutional level, that should guide and restrain police use of deadly force. Beyond simply identifying those principles, Ben Jones translates them into law and policy through extensive engagement with social science research.
This book provides a philosophical account of status, to argue that it is a moral and not just a legal or social idea that can be instrumental in regulating unequal social relations and protecting vulnerable groups.
