This book is a contribution to the ongoing conversation about value
pluralism and its relation to political life. Its uniqueness lies
in its insistence that the acceptance of value pluralism involves
placing certain limitations on what is an acceptable form of
government and what functions governments ought to be legitimately
performing. In a new approach coined "nomocratic pluralism," this
volume argues that liberty under the rule of law, which is not
merely liberty where the law is silent, is a key concept of liberty
and cannot be subsumed by the other primary implications of the
acceptance of value pluralism: that political communities must
reject positive liberty as a political value, and place a high, but
not absolute, priority on negative liberty as a political value.
The concept of liberty under the rule of law is particularly suited
to accommodate a great variety of individual and group conceptions
of value and the moral good, and thus, along with negative liberty,
should be a primary value for those who accept value pluralism.
