This book traces the growth of philosophical justifications of
toleration. The contributors discuss the grounds on which we may be
required to be tolerant and the proper limits of toleration. They
consider the historical and conceptual relation between toleration
and scepticism and ask whether toleration is justified by
considerations of autonomy or of prudence. The papers cover a range
of perspectives on the subject, including Marxist and Socialist as
well as liberal views. The editor's introduction prepares the
ground by discussing the essential features of the subject and
offers a lucid survey of the theories and arguments put forward in
the book. The collection arises out of the Morrell Toleration
Project at the University of York and all the papers were written
as contributions to that project. The discussion will be of
interest to specialists in philosophy, in political and social
theory and in intellectual history.
