William Felice’s book shines a clear light on American citizens’ moral interdependence with those around the world. It is an exemplary blend of dispassionate analysis and clear ethical commitment. Highly recommended.

Brent Pickett, University of Wyoming

The Ethics of Interdependence brilliantly demonstrates why we should support human rights at home and abroad, framing the argument in lucid prose, enlivened by four fascinating case studies. I regard Felice's book as necessary reading for both college students and citizens of conscience everywhere.

In this book, William Felice offers a challenging and eloquent argument for what he calls the 'ethical interdependence of human rights and duties.' In ways that reach more deeply into the issues than even the best textbooks, Felice develops four diverse case studies that illustrate how ethical principles can, and should, be applied to real world problems. These cases–typically relegated to a paragraph or two as afterthoughts in larger books–illustrate, in impressively specific terms, the range of dilemmas and duties faced by all who profess to support universal human rights. This book would be a wonderful addition to courses on justice and human rights across the liberal arts curriculum.
