Recensioner i media

"Here, Winston examines the impact that 'a rising Asia' could have on global concepts of public ethics. ... For specialists in the political art of practical reasoning, as Winston is, Ethics in Public Life presents a wide variety of fascinating examples of practical reasoning by Asian governance practitioners. ... He provides a challenging restatement about global values in public ethics, with more than a hint of criticism of U.S. practices of good governance." (John Uhr, Political Theory, Vol. 14 (1), March, 2016)
