Natural law & governmentafter the COVID-19 revolution /[electronic resource] :by Joseph Drew. - Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :2022. - vii, 162 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. Natural Law and Government, or, After the (COVID) Revolution? -- Chapter 2. Human Flourishing -- Chapter 3. Moral Government -- Chapter 4. Sortition - A Partial Defence of Human Dignity -- Chapter 5. Structure, Remit, and Size of Government -- Chapter 6. Evaluating Policy Success: COVID Response and Human Flourishing -- Chapter 7. Funding Moral Government Chapter 8. Education -- Chapter 9. Can We Have Government and Human Flourishing?

Since the dawn of civilisation philosophers and sages alike have been concerned about the potential for government to become a Leviathan-like monster. In this book Professor Drew shows how a careful application of natural law principles can mitigate this threat of Leviathan and also contribute to the flourishing of people. To do so Natural Law and Government examines the trade-off between human dignity and the common good during the public policy response to COVID-19. Specifically, Professor Drew details his concerns regarding the emergence of concentrations of power and competence in government - changes that have sadly given rise to the repression of the vitality of citizens. This ground-breaking work explains the changes to thinking, institutions and public management that are necessary for people to reclaim their right to thrive as humans. In sum, this is a handbook for what needs to be done after the COVID-19 revolution.
