Description
Peter Winch (1926–1997) was one of the most important philosophers of his generation. Although best known for his work in social science and the interpretation of Ludwig Wittgenstein, he had a long-standing interest in ethics and political philosophy and was writing a book on political philosophy at the time of his death. This volume collects together Winch’s previously unpublished manuscripts on political philosophy, together with an editorial introduction which outlines the development of Winch’s approach over the course of his life, and shows the originality and enduring relevance of his approach to perennial issues concerning the nature and justification of political authority.
