  1. The sociopath and the ring of gyges: A problem in rhetorical and moral philosophy.Donald Phillip Verene - 2010 - Philosophy and Rhetoric 43 (3):201-221.
    Moral philosophy in all its contemporary forms, whether consequentialist, formalist, contractarian, utilitarian, or virtue ethicist, presumes the possibility of formulating principles of conduct that apply universally to all human beings.
