The a case for reasoning within the world Sandel, Adam Adatto creator author. text bibliography Electronic books. enk 2014 monographic eng 1 online resource (viii, 268 pages) Today we associate prejudice with ignorance and bigotry and consider it a source of injustice. So how can prejudice have a legitimate place in moral and political judgment? In this ambitious work, Adam Sandel shows that prejudice, properly understood, is not an unfortunate obstacle to clear thinking but an essential aspect of it. The aspiration to reason without preconceptions, he argues, is misguided.
