Matthew Liao argues here that children have a right to be loved. To do so he investigates questions such as whether children are rightholders; what grounds a child's right to beloved; whether love is an appropriate object of a right; and other philosophical and practical issues. His proposal is that all human beings have rights to the fundamental conditions for pursuing a good life; therefore, as human beings, children have human rights to the fundamental conditions for pursuing a good life. Since being loved is one of those fundamental conditions, children thus have a right to be loved. Liao shows that this claim need not be merely empty rhetoric, and that the arguments for this right can hang together as a coherent whole. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is the first book to make a sustained philosophical case for the right of children to be loved. It makes a unique contribution to the fast-growing literature on family ethics, in particular, on children's rights and parental rights and responsibilities, and to the emerging field of the philosophy of human rights.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46483126485143,"sku":"9780190234836","price":11146.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780190234836.jpg?v=1766318652","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/right-to-be-loved-9780190234836","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
