Sommario/riassunto

The essays in this book by a group of leading political theorists assess and develop the central ideas of Michael Walzer's path-breaking 'Spheres of Justice'. It concludes with an essay by Walzer in which he reflects on the positions taken in his original book in the light of the critical appraisals presented here.
