[tab] [content title="Summary"] A profound and essential challenge to contemporary political and ethical theory Modern political philosophy, particularly in the works of Martha Nussbaum, John Rawls, and Amartya Sen, often assumes that it can function independently of other philosophical perspectives and frameworks. In this book, Den Uyl and Rasmussen counter this trend by transitioning from the liberalism they previously advocated to a position they term "individualistic perfectionism" in ethics. They continue to question the assumption that a neo-Aristotelian ethical framework cannot underpin a liberal, non-perfectionist political theory, expanding upon the perfectionist ethical approach they had explored in their earlier political writings. Through a detailed examination of the core principles and features of individualistic perfectionism, they argue that it presents a robust and compelling alternative to much of contemporary ethical thought—particularly constructivism. Moreover, they demonstrate that individualistic perfectionism can address and overcome the common criticisms typically leveled against perfectionist approaches.
