Sumario: | Featuring essays by scholars working in a variety of subjects, this book presents diverse perspectives on dilemmas posed by potential conflicts between loyalties to specific institutions or professional roles and more universalistic conceptions of moral duty. This book begins with a philosophical exploration of theories of loyalty, both Eastern and Western, and then moves on to examine several problematic situations in which loyalty is often a factor: partisan politics, the armed forces, and lawyer-client relationships. -- Adapted from publisher's description. |
