Books by Larry (Professor of Philosophy at Washington University in St. Louis May

In this work, the author departs from the traditional Western view that moral responsibility is limited to the consequences of overt individual action. He argues that individuals share responsibility for various harms perpetrated by their communities.

The author argues in this text that a person's integrity and moral responsibility are shaped and limited not just by conscience, but also by socialization and moral support from the communities to which he or she belongs.
