Introduction --2. Machiavelli and the Case for Hypocrisy --3. Molière, Rousseau, and the Ideal of Integrity --4. Rousseau's Political Ethics --5. Rousseau's Political Ethics --6. 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 RepublicHypocrisy & integrityPolitical ethicsCompromise (Ethics)Hypocrisypolitics, ethics, rousseau, machiavelli, power, society, control, government, integrity, hypocrisy, virtue, character, politicians, rule, idealism, fanaticism, compromise, morality, nonfiction, philosophy, political science, reason, honesty, moliere, prudence, deception, corruption, dependence, vanity, rationality, transparency, lying, misrepresentation, issues, candidates.Political ethics.Compromise (Ethics)Hypocrisy.172Grant Ruth Weissbourd1951-1489262MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778715103321Hypocrisy and integrity3731942UNINA
