Michael Sandel is a late convert to republicanism from communitarianism.

In a related line of criticism, Michael Sandel, also a Harvard colleague, wrote Liberalism and the Limits of Justice, which criticized A Theory of Justice for asking us to think about justice while divorced from the values and aspirations that define who we are as persons, and which allow us to determine what justice is.

One of such philosophers of modern days is Michael Sandel of Harvard University.

The Mesolithic site at Mount Sandel, which dates from approximately 5935 BC is some of the earliest evidence of human settlement in Ireland.

Michael J. Sandel ( born March 5, 1953 ) is an American political philosopher and a professor at Harvard University.

Sandel subscribes to a certain version of communitarianism ( although he is uncomfortable with the label ), and in this vein he is perhaps best known for his critique of John Rawls's A Theory of Justice.

Across three programmes, Sandel debates with the audience whether universities should give preference to students from poorer backgrounds ; whether a nurse should be paid more than a banker ; and whether it is right to bribe people to be healthy.
