Book Information

Analyzes contemporary views on such questions as whether the state should be neutral to the moral practices of its citizens, whether states can create a liberal character in said citizens, and whether liberal ideals comprise a point of consensus in a diverse society. Argues that modern theorists fail to express the fullness of liberality, and that a return to the vulgar traditions of Hobbes is necessary. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
