This research paper: An 6 page essay that summarizes and analyzes Alasdair MacIntyre’s Dependent Rational Animals, Why Human Beings Need the Virtues, which calls for the development of a "distinctive" set of virtues, which are constructed not only on acknowledgment of humanity’s rational nature, but also on the fact that human beings are part of the animal kingdom and dependent on each other in various ways throughout the life span. This paper discusses MacIntyre’s thesis in details and then offers the reasons why this writer/tutor agrees, but also feels that MacIntyre left out a major area of ethical philosophy that encompasses precisely the virtues that he calls for in his book. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
