No theory is more passionately and widely defined, or decried, than
is liberalism in contemporary Anglo-American philosophy. But what
is this theory, on which so much ink is spilled? This collection of
original essays by leading specialists in political philosophy,
legal theory, and economics offers answers to that question, by
exploring the theoretical commitments of liberals and some of the
practical implications of their view. Among the topics explored is
the distinction between liberalism and conservatism, and the degree
to which liberals must be committed to neutrality, individualism,
equality, freedom, and a contractarian theory of justification. The
practical implications of liberalism are further examined by
considerations of the proper role of the liberal state in
undertaking egalitarian redistribution, the provision of public
goods, and retributive punishment. The papers assembled by Narveson
and Dimock will be of benefit to anyone working in the areas of
political philosophy, political theory, or political economics.
