Falsafah Politik Barat Masa Kini: Metafizik dan Tokoh
(Western Contemporary Political Philosophy: Metaphysics and Figures)
Author: Makmor Tumin
Year: 2021
Publisher: UM Press
The book on contemporary political philosophy discusses a neo-deontological
debate between John Rawls and Robert Nozick. While the former concerns
egalitarianism, the latter highlights the importance of libertarianism. The book
also provides an alternative for these two debates, opening the room for neo-
Aristotelianism. The debate on contemporary political philosophy then ends
with Ian Shapiro’s argument on democratized Burkeanism.
