Care, paternalisme et vertu dans une perspective liberale
In: Raisons politiques: études de pensée politique, Heft 4, S. 139-161
Abstract
This article advocates two criteria to distinguish good and bad paternalism in a liberal perfectionist view. It identifies paternalism based on the value of autonomy and paternalism based on other values. Only the first is compatible with liberalism. Within the first group, I identify paternalism based on a specific definition of autonomy and another that does not assume a specific definition of autonomy. Whereas the first is morally justified, legally, only the second is compatible with liberalism. Through a discussion of how care economics works and is justified -- and other particular examples -- this article shows how paternalistic policies may be desirable, acceptable or unacceptable according to their compliance with these criteria. Adapted from the source document.
