Political Argument (Routledge Revivals) [PDF ebook] 

Since its publication in 1965, Brian Barry»s seminal work has occupied an important role in the revival of Anglo-American political philosophy. A number of ideas and terms in it have become part of the standard vocabulary, such as the distinction between ‘ideal-regarding’ and ‘want-regarding’ principles and the division of principles into aggregative and distributive. The book provided the first precise analysis of the concept of political values having trade-off relations and its analysis of the notion of the public interest has also been significant.
