Whose Justice? Which Rationality?, the sequel to After Virtue, is a persuasive argument of there not being rationality that is not the rationality of some tradition. MacIntyre examines the problems presented by the existence of rival traditions of inquiry in the cases of four major philosophers: Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, and Hume.
“MacIntyre is widely informed and his story of developments in the traditions that he identifies is learned, interesting, and notably well-written.” —London Review of Books
Alasdair MacIntyre (1929–2025) was permanent senior distinguished research fellow at the de Nicola Center of Ethics and Culture and the Rev. John A. O’Brien senior research professor of philosophy emeritus at the University of Notre Dame. He authored numerous books over the course of his career, including After Virtue, A Short History of Ethics, and Three Rival Versions of Moral Enquiry, all published by the University of Notre Dame Press.
