Karol Wojtyla and Martha Nussbaum on Human Essentials: Part II
Part II: Martha Nussbaum’s “Human Functioning and Social Justice: In Defense of Aristotelian Essentialism” seeks to delineate certain essential human characteristics, with the end of normatively grounding a liberal capabilities polity. In my view, Karol Wojtyla’s “Person and Act” gives strong support in the epistemology of person to her capabilities project.
