The Open Society and Its Complexities - Philosophy, Politics, and Economics

The "Open Society" is a society of free individuals, cooperating while pursing diverse ways of living. The Open Society and Its Complexities marshals formal models and empirical evidence to show that our open society is grounded on the moral foundations of human cooperation originating in our distant evolutionary past, but has built upon these foundation a complex society that requires us to rethink both the nature of moral justification and the meaning ofdemocratic self-governance.
