Political Emotions: Why Love Matters For Justice

Martha Nussbaum asks: How can we sustain a decent society that aspires to justice and inspires sacrifice for the common good? Amid negative emotions endemic even to good societies, public emotions rooted in love-intense attachments outside our control-can foster commitment to shared goals and keep at bay the forces of disgust and envy.
