31 Pages Posted: 5 Oct 2004
Abstract
The paper sets out a conception of philosophy as critical reflection on received opinion; looks at different conceptions of human agents and relationships, different views of social formations like the people and the state, and conflicting stories about the connection between the good and the right; and considers the implications of those rival views for politics.
