For readers exploring moral philosophy and civic duty

Addresses how rights-talk undermines civic virtue

You will gain insights into the balance of rights and duties

This thought-provoking book challenges the concept of modern rights.

What\'s Wrong with Rights? argues that contemporary rights-talk obscures the importance of civic virtue, corrodes military effectiveness, and subverts the democratic legitimacy of law. It draws upon legal and moral philosophy, moral theology, and court judgments. The discussion ranges from medieval Christendom to debates about justified killing.
