"Contractarianism in some form has been at the center of recent debates in moral and political philosophy. Jean Hampton was one of the most gifted philosophers involved in these debates and pro-vided both important criticisms of prominent contractarian theories and powerful defenses and applications of the core ideas of con-tractarianism. In these essays, she brought her distinctive approach, animated by concern for the intrinsic worth of persons, to bear on topics such as guilt, punishment, self-respect, family relations, and the maintenance and justification of the state. Edited by Daniel Farnham, this collection is an essential contribution to understanding the problems and prospects of contractarianism in moral, legal, and political philosophy."--BOOK JACKET.
