In this post, ryan_b reviews Tamler Sommers’ Why Honor Matters, exploring the case for honor as a local, social, psychologically realistic ethical framework rather than an abstract universal theory. The review walks through honor’s links to courage, hospitality, shame, solidarity, violence, revenge, and community, while keeping sight of its darker associations and the costs of trying to do without it entirely.
