Anna Czuchry

The concept of virtue, rediscovered recently as a subject of public debate and of philosophical inquiry, provides for bridging distinct debates on the nature of active citizenship. A variety of critics of liberalism, known as communitarians or civic republicans, advanced complaints that focused on the lack of positive liberal ideals. Anna Czuchry’s study draws on the arguments of the philosophers including Rawls, Galston, Petit and Sandel and discusses whether, how and what kind of virtue should be incorporated into the concept of citizenship in a liberal polity.
