Description

A Matter of Choice represents a substantive discussion of the
concept of choice in human affairs, taken against the backdrop of ethics and
religion. Drawing on a range of contributions, Hodgkiss demonstrates in this
study that, though often not the primary issue under consideration, a concern
with choice has featured continually in human thought from the Hellenistic
world of the Stoics to the post-Kantian environment of modern philosophy.
Moreover, he argues that the social and historical dimension of choice has been
consistently underplayed, and that the role of choice in modern economic and
political developments is underestimated at our peril. Through a critical
account of the literature, Hodgkiss adeptly diagnoses the insufficiency of the
current conception of the choice-making sovereign individual in the
contemporary liberal-democratic capitalist context and outlines the
implications of this philosophy for the choice-maker.
