This book provides a sustained, critical and theological engagement
with arguably the most crucial aspect of contemporary society - its
diversity.
The author finds in the social theory of Isaiah Berlin a number of
fruitful ways to reframe the debate over these questions, and to
contribute to a more positive conversation regarding our
fundamental differences.
The book focuses particularly on Berlin's critique of monism and
idealistic utopianism, arguing that pluralism does not represent a
failure in the nature of human society, but a superabundance of
possibilities in a created world grounded in the character of God.
Bringing Berlin's thought into conversation with other social
theorists, philosophers and Christian theologians, the book
provides leaders and members of faith communities with a viable
model to move beyond tolerance as mere forbearance to a grace which
consists of respect and radical acceptance of others.
