Summary
'Works Righteousness' is a full-length study of the place of practice in ethical theory. It is a critique of the idealism of dominant approaches, an analysis of alternative models in which practice plays a more significant role, and an argument for taking practice seriously both in broad questions about ethical theory and in concrete case studies. The text's main argument is that what people actually do should be central to ethical theory.
