The modern state protects citizens from many different harms, from industrial accidents to airline crashes. This Element illuminates a distinctive politics of protection that transcends policy sectors as diverse as criminal justice, consumer protection, and public health. Adopting a comparative and historical perspective, the Element identifies common drivers of protective state-building as well as cross-national differences in the politics of protection. The Element concludes by examining political theories of the protective state, which seek to defend and critique the obligations for and the limits of state protection.

"Convulsed by a civilizational crisis, the great thinkers of the Renaissance set out to reconceive the nature of society. Everywhere they saw problems. Corrupt and reckless tyrants sowing discord and ruling through fear; elites who prized wealth and status over the common good; military leaders waging endless wars. Their solution was at once simple and radical. "Men, not walls, make a city," as Thucydides so memorably said. They would rebuild their city, and their civilization, by transforming the moral character of its citizens. Soulcraft, they believed, was a precondition of successful statecraft. A dazzlingly ambitious reappraisal of Renaissance political thought by one of our generation's foremost intellectual historians, Virtue Politics challenges the traditional narrative that looks to the Renaissance as the seedbed of modern republicanism and sees Machiavelli as its exemplary thinker. James Hankins reveals that what most concerned the humanists was not reforming laws or institutions so much as shaping citizens. If character mattered more than constitutions, it would have to be nurtured through a new program of education they called the studia humanitatis: the humanities. We owe liberal arts education and much else besides to the bold experiment of these passionate and principled thinkers. The questions they asked-Should a good man serve a corrupt regime? What virtues are necessary in a leader? What is the source of political legitimacy? Is wealth concentration detrimental to social cohesion? Should citizens be expected to fight for their country?-would have a profound impact on later debates about good government and seem as vital today as they did then"--

La 4e de couverture indique : "Pour le meilleur et pour le pire, dans notre société hyperfinanciarisée, les marchés orientent les comportements des épargnants, des entreprises et des gouvernements. Aujourd'hui, les entreprises de la finance s'interrogent sur la compatibilité de leurs décisions avec l'intérêt général, devenue incontournable dans un monde affrontant des défis majeurs tels que le changement climatique et la hausse des inégalités. Comment évaluer à l'aune du "bien commun" un projet d'investissement ou une politique publique ? Dans cet ouvrage précis et accessible, Christian Gollier développe une méthode novatrice pour transformer nos aspirations morales en outils efficaces de gestion financière et bâtit ainsi un pont salutaire entre la théorie moderne de la finance, l'économie du bien commun et la théorie du choix social."
