«Claudia Blöser y Titus Stahl han reunido un volumen amplio sobre la naturaleza, la historia y el significado social de la esperanza. El volumen no escatima en historia; seis de sus quince capítulos se centran en la historia filosófica de la esperanza, y otros incluyen una discusión extensa de figuras históricas y tradiciones. El volumen también hace contribuciones a nuestra comprensión de la naturaleza de la esperanza, considerada tanto como una actitud como un rasgo (quizás una virtud) del carácter. El volumen se cierra con una sección sobre los contextos sociales de la esperanza, donde se presta atención a temas como el papel de la esperanza en la justificación política y la racionalidad de esperar una prosperidad humana generalizada ante un posible colapso ambiental. Es un volumen rico. Tendré ocasión a continuación para tocar cada uno de sus capítulos.»

Abstract Tomasello's moral psychology of obligation would be developmentally deepened by greater attention to early experiences of cooperation and shared social agency between parents and infants, evolved to promote infant survival. They provide a foundation for developing understanding of the mutual obligations of close relationships that contribute (alongside peer experiences) to growing collaborative skills, fairness expectations, and fidelity to social norms.

A Wolf in the City is a study of tyranny and of the tyrant’s soul in Plato’s Republic. It argues that Plato’s critique of tyranny is an intervention in an ancient debate concerning the sources of the crisis of Athenian democracy and the relation between political leaders and the demos in the last decades of the fifth century BCE. The book shows that Plato’s critique of tyranny should not be taken as a veiled critique of the Syracusan tyrannical regime but, rather, as an integral part of his critique of Athenian democracy. The book also offers an in-depth and detailed analysis of all three parts of the tyrant’s soul, and contends that this approach is necessary to both fully appraise the complex psychic dynamics taking place in the description of the tyrannical man and shed light on Plato’s moral psychology and its relation with his political theory.

The conclusion summarizes the main aims of the book. Even though shame can be a painful and damaging emotion, we would still not be better off without it. A continued liability to shame shows that we accept that we are not always the people we think we are, but accepting this fact is a sign of moral maturity. Additionally, this conclusion raises questions about moral philosophy’s commitment to positive moral psychology. Although some philosophers have defended negative emotions, the field as a whole still treats positive feelings as better and more desirable than negative feelings. But it is reasonable to ask whether moral agents should try to be “emotional saints.”
