Content:
The ";comprehensive liberalism"; defended in this book offers an alternative to the narrower ";political liberalism"; associated with the writings of John Rawls. By arguing against making tolerance as fundamental a value as individual autonomy, and extending the reach of liberalism to global society, it opens the way for dealing more adequately with problems of human rights and economic inequality in a world of cultural pluralism.
