A valuable collection of articles by prominent legal and political philosophers on aspects of recent liber-al theory. The contributors examine the attempts of contemporary writers such as Rawls, Nozick, Dworkin, Raz and Gewirth to develop and extend the ideas of classic liberal thinkers of the past such as Locke, Mill and Kant. The topics covered range from an examination of the place of property rights in the liberal tradition, to debates on the nature of liberal neutrality and the role of contract in legitimising sexual as well as economic and political relations.weiterlesen
