The programmes of political parties and movements are attempts to formulate policies or guidelines in relation to social change. Social philosophy concerns the fundamental issues on which those programmes divide. This introductory work gives an account of several highly influential systems of social philosophy - systems which serve as the landmarks by reference to which modern discussions still orientate themselves. The description of various stages in the history of social philosophy is set within an account of its changing social environment - from feudalism and the philosophy of Aquinas to

When many people think of bioethics, they think of gripping
issues in clinical medicine such as end-of-life decision-making,
controversies in biomedical research such as that over work
with stem cells, or issues in allocating scarce health-care
resources such as organs or money. The term "bioethics"
may evoke images of moral controversies being discussed on news
programs and talk shows. But this "controversy of the
day" focus often treats ethical issues in medicine
superficially, for it addresses them as if they could be examined
and discussed in isolation from the context in which they are
situated. Such a focus on the latest controversies fails to
take into account that medicine is a social institution and
that the controversies in bioethics often reflect deeper social
and moral issues that transcend the boundaries of medicine and
ethics. If one moves beyond the issue-of-the-day approach to
bioethics, one can see that the field must address these deeper
issues.
In the Philosophy of Right Hegel argues that modern life has produced an individualized freedom that conflicts with the communal forms of life constitutive of Greek ethical life. This individualized freedom is fundamentally unsatisfactory, but it is in modernity seemingly resolved into a more adequate form of social freedom in the family, aspects of civil society, and ultimately the state. This article examines whether Hegel's state can function as a community and by so doing satisfy the need for a substantial ethical life that runs through Hegel's social thought. The article also examines why Hegel does not provide a detailed analysis of community, as a distinct sphere between the private and the public political sphere in the Philosophy of Right, and why it is not a key platform of his social freedom.
