Exploring Complicity

Practices of complicity are as prevalent as they are under-theorised. This book seeks to redress this situation, and is highly recommended for its innovative and wide-ranging approach to the subject. -- Scott Veitch, Paul KC Chung Professor in Jurisprudence, University of Hong Kong
'Complicity in wrongdoing is complex, rife and too often overlooked. For all three reasons, a critical understanding of it is vital. This rich, engaging collection is just the place to start: shining searching light at diverse dimensions of a phenomenon the moral, political and cultural significance of which has arguably never been greater.' -- Gideon Calder, Senior Lecturer in Public Health, Policy and Social Sciences, Swansea University
A philosophically rich volume that commands reflection on explicit forms and implicit reaffirmations of individual and structural complicity. Comprehensive and nuanced, it posits a masterful account of the complexities associated with understanding and assigning blame, suggesting that being complicit in wrongdoing often cannot be helped. Thus, it provides an important challenge to current thinking about complicity - sharpening the debate. -- Garrett Wallace Brown, Reader in Political Theory, Global Ethics and Global Health Policy, University of Sheffield
