The Morality of Gay Rights presents a comprehensive exploration of the connection between gay rights and traditional (non-postmodern) political philosophies.

In The Morality of Gay Rights, Ball presents a comprehensive exploration of the connection between gay rights and political philosophy. He discusses the writing of contemporary political and legal philosophers-including Rawls, Walzer, Nussbaum, Sandel, Rorty and Dworkin-to evaluate how their theoretical frameworks fit the specific gay rights controversies, such as same-sex marriage and parenting by lesbians and gay men, that are part of our nation's political and legal debates.

Carlos Ball is Professor of Law at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. His articles have appeared in the Chicago Tribune and Miami Herald.
