Liberalism and the Good Summary

Liberalism and the Good by R. Bruce Douglass

No challenge is more difficult for liberal theorists than justifying the value attached to toleration, since, in the face of mutually irreconcilable conceptions of the good, liberals instinctively caution against treating any of them as privileged, especially in the making of public policy. This book raises provocative and important questions in the current theoretical reassessment of political liberalism.

Table of Contents
