In this book, Gisli Vogler argues that we need an improved conception of judging complicity under conditions of both plurality and inescapable social conditioning.\u003cbr\u003eBringing Hannah Arendt's account of political judgement into dialogue with Margaret Archer's theory of social conditioning, Vogler formulates a new framework - what he terms an 'ethos of reality' - for understanding how people may judge and respond to their entanglement in injustice and violence. Such a theoretical argument is tested through a case study on the complicity of consumers in the plastic pollution caused by the food and drink industries. Additionally, Vogler analyses the interviews and writings of Nobel Laureate Herta M?ller, whose lived experience of the Romanian dictatorship constitutes an example of good judgement on complicity. This book persuasively demonstrates the potential for an 'ethos of reality' to contribute to key contemporary debates on complicity and moral responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGisli Vogler is Teaching Fellow in the Social Sciences in the Centre for Open Learning at the University of Edinburgh, UK.
