COMMITMENT IN AMARTYA SEN’S PHILOSOPHY

PREVINTH Joe Tony sdb

This book studies the relevance of the notion of commitment in Amartya Sen, the Indian economist and philosopher, in the context of the encyclical Caritas in Veritate (CV) by Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI on integral human development. Sen’s notion of commitment is of particular relevance to the encyclical Caritas in Veritate. We are thus able to identify points of convergence between love and commitment by this comparative study. This volume is an immeasurably valuable contribution that searches after truth!
