To Assist or Not to Assist? Assessing the Potential Moral Costs of Humanitarian Intervention in Nature
In light of the extent of wild animal suffering, some philosophers have adopted the view that we should cautiously assist wild animals on a large scale. Recently, their view has come under criticism. According to one objection, even cautious intervention is unjustified because fallibility is allegedly intractable. By contrast, a second objection states that we should abandon caution and intentionally destroy habitat in order to prevent wild anima…

Conceptual Disagreement about Justice: Verbal, but Not Merely Verbal
In this paper, I introduce the articles contained in this special issue, and I briefly explain some of the main arguments presented in my book A Conceptual Investigation of Justice . A central claim in my book is that a verbal and yet also philosophically substantial disagreement over the word ‘justice’ lies at the heart of a number of issues in contemporary political philosophy. Over the course of introducing my book’s arguments and the commenta…

The Political Philosophy of G.A. Cohen: Back to Socialist Basics
Nicholas Vrousalis's The Political Philosophy of G.A. Cohen: Back to Socialist Basics is the first ever monograph devoted to explaining, interpreting and connecting the many theses advanced by G.A.

On the Theoretical Significance of G. A. Cohen’s Fact-Insensitivity Thesis
Distributive Justice and Access to Advantage
Distributive Justice and Access to Advantage is the most recent anthology devoted to the work of the great and, sadly, late political philosopher G.A. Cohen. Whereas other anthologies published since his passing have been comprised of Cohen's own work, this anthology, edited by Alexander Kaufman, presents us with a series of essays about Cohen's work. The volume's impressive roster of contributors will raise readers’ hopes, and I don't think thos…
