Conclusion --Works Cited --IndexQuestioning the usual judgements of political ethics, Ruth W. Grant argues that hypocrisy can actually be constructive while strictly principled behavior can be destructive. Hypocrisy and Integrity offers a new conceptual framework that clarifies the differences between idealism and fanaticism while it uncovers the moral limits of compromise. "Exciting and provocative. . . . Grant's work is to be highly recommended, offering a fresh reading of Rousseau and Machiavelli as well as presenting a penetrating analysis of hypocrisy and integrity."-Ronald J. Terchek, American Political Science Review "A great refreshment. . . . With liberalism's best interests at heart, Grant seeks to make available a better understanding of the limits of reason in politics."-Peter Berkowitz, New RepublicPolitical ethicsCompromise (Ethics)HypocrisyElectronic books.Political ethics.Compromise (Ethics)Hypocrisy.172Grant Ruth Weissbourd1951-899147MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455322303321Hypocrisy and integrity2240986UNINA
