Hardback. Num Pages: 326 pages. BIC Classification: GBC; HP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 243 x 168 x 22. Weight in Grams: 653.
The Good Rebel is a philosophical work, the methodology of which is nonetheless literary and historical. The book provides an original but historically informed and socially relevant commentary on modern conceptions of personal autonomy. Communitarian authors provide effective critiques of a liberal preoccupation with individualistic personal autonomy. Groarke does not contest the liberal emphasis on autonomy: instead he contests the way in which contemporary liberals define the concept of autonomy.
