Can they retain fidelity to their conscience while ignoring a sense of what integrity requires? Integrity and conscience are often thought to be closely related, perhaps even different aspects of a single impulse. This timely book supports a different and more complicated view. Acting with integrity and obeying one's conscience might be mutually reinforcing in some settings, but in others they can live in varying degrees of mutual tension. Bringing together prominent scholars of legal theory and political philosophy, the volume addresses both classic ruminations on integrity and conscience by Plato, Hume, and Kant as well as more contemporary examinations of professional ethics and the complex relations among politics, law and personal morality. 2024-04-03T10:09:53Z 2024-04-03T10:09:53Z 1998 book ONIX_20240403_9780814739617_63 9780814739617 9780814780978 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/89345 eng NOMOS - American Society for Political and Legal Philosophy application/pdf application/epub+zip Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International 9780814739617_WEB.pdf 9780814739617_EPUB.epub New York University Press NYU Press 10.18574/nyu/9780814739617.001.0001 10.18574/nyu/9780814739617.001.0001 7d95336a-0494-42b2-ad9c-8456b2e29ddc 9780814739617 9780814780978 NYU Press 11 New York open access
