A central task in contemporary political philosophy is to identify
principles governing political life where citizens disagree deeply
on important questions of value and, more generally, about the
proper ends of life. The distinctively liberal response to this
challenge insists that the state should as far as possible avoid
relying on such contested issues in its basic structure and
deliberations. David McCabe critically surveys influential defenses
of the liberal solution and advocates modus vivendi liberalism as
an alternative defense of the liberal state. Acknowledging that the
modus vivendi approach does not provide the deep moral consensus
that many liberals demand, he defends the liberal state as an
acceptable compromise among citizens who will continue to see it as
less than ideal. His book will interest a wide range of readers in
political philosophy and political theory.
