Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Is socialism desirable? Is it even possible? In this concise book, one of the world's leading political philosophers presents with clarity and wit a compelling moral case for socialism and argues that the obstacles in its way are exaggerated. There are times, G. A. Cohen notes, when we all behave like socialists. On a camping trip, for example, campers wouldn't dream of charging each other to use a soccer ball or for fish that they happened to catch. Campers do not give merely to get, but relate to each other in a spirit of equality and community. Would such socialist norms be desirable across society as a whole? Why not? Whole societies may differ from camping trips, but it is still attractive when people treat each other with the equal regard that such trips exhibit. But, however desirable it may be, many claim that socialism is impossible. Cohen writes that the biggest obstacle to socialism isn't, as often argued, intractable human selfishness--it's rather the lack of obvious means to harness the human generosity that is there. Lacking those means, we rely on the market. But there are many ways of confining the sway of the market: there are desirable changes that can move us toward a socialist society in which, to quote Albert Einstein, humanity has "overcome and advanced beyond the predatory stage of human development.". The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. G. A. Cohen was one of the most gifted, influential, and progressive voices in contemporary political philosophy. At the time of his death in 2009, he had plans to bring together a number of his most significant papers. This is the first of three volumes to realize those plans. Drawing on three decades of work, it contains previously uncollected articles that have shaped many of the central debates in political philosophy, as well as papers published here for the first time. In these pieces, Cohen asks what egalitarians have most reason to equalize, he considers the relationship between freedom and property, and he reflects upon ideal theory and political practice. Included here are classic essays such as "Equality of What?" and "Capitalism, Freedom, and the Proletariat," along with more recent contributions such as "Fairness and Legitimacy in Justice," "Freedom and Money," and the previously unpublished "How to Do Political Philosophy." On ample display throughout are the clarity, rigor, conviction, and wit for which Cohen was renowned. Together, these essays demonstrate how his work provides a powerful account of liberty and equality to the left of Ronald Dworkin, John Rawls, Amartya Sen, and Isaiah Berlin. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Zustand: Nuevo. ¿Es deseable el socialismo? ¿Es acaso posible? En este agudo y conciso ensayo, G. A. Cohen, uno de los más importantes filósofos políticos de las últimas décadas, toma como punto de partida un presunto viaje de campamento para demostrar que en algunas circunstancias el socialismo es muy atractivo para la mayoría de las personas. Pero, yendo más allá, Cohen argumentará que los principios que para él definen el socialismo -una versión muy estricta de la igualdad de oportunidades y un exigente principio de comunidad- no tienen un atractivo superficial ni limitado a circunstancias excepcionales, sino que son valiosos para toda la sociedad en cualquier circunstancia. Que el socialismo no parezca viable no implica que sus principios sean irrelevantes: en una época en la que estamos reevaluando nuestras prioridades económicas, este penetrante y provocador ensayo de Cohen es una apelación a la integridad personal y un recordatorio de que la preservación del interés propio no puede estar desvinculada del cuidado del interés colectivo. La problemática de nuestras complejas sociedades es diferente de la de un grupo de campistas; pero sin embargo sigue siendo atractivo pensar que las personas puedan tratarse unas a otras con el mismo respeto que en esa situación.…
