The Moral Basis of the Democratic Welfare State
Responsibility, Rights, and Welfare
Book Symposium on Political Methodologies
Citizens Without Shelter
Citizens Without Shelter: Homelessness, Democracy, and Political Exclusion. By Leonard C. Feldman. Ithaca and London: Cornell University Press, 2004. 224p. $35.00. American attitudes toward the homeless tend to shift back and forth between compassion and compassion fatigue, between supporting policies to provide resources to the homeless and supporting punitive policies to exclude them from public spaces. This ambivalence is often explained by in…
What is Political Theory
This title provides students with a comprehensive overview of the current state of the discipline. Topics addressed include what resources do the classic texts still provide for political theorists, and what areas will political theorists focus on in the future
Liberalism, Autonomy, And Moral Pluralism
Rawls Andhabermas Onpublicreason
Many have argued that Rawls's and Habermas's accounts of public reason have converged in their latest writings, as both support the basic structure of the modern, constitutional, democratic state. But an analysis of their views of global justice reveals deep differences in their views of public reason. For Rawls, public reason is a substantive set of principles to be used to answer fundamental questions, whose content varies with the context in w…
Religion and the Demise of Liberal Rationalism
The Dark Side of the Left
Engaging plurality
Managing Moral Conflict
Democracy's Discontent
Practical discourse and communicative ethics
As the idea of an ultimate foundation for moral and political beliefs has become increasingly implausible, theorists have turned to "discourse" to provide a basis on which to defend the legitimacy of social and political practices. The turn to discourse, which includes but is not limited to communicative ethics, is in part a move from a substantive to a procedural conception of moral and political theory. Rather than providing values grounded in …
Constructing Community
In developing a new theory of political and moral community, J. Donald Moon takes questions of cultural pluralism and difference more seriously than do many other liberal thinkers of our era: Moon is willing to confront the problem of how community can be created among those who have very different views about the proper ends of human life. Experiencing such profound disagreement, can we live together in a society under norms we all accept? In re…
Constrained Discourse and Public Life
T HE OBVIOUS BASIS FOR DECIDING moral and political issues is, as Plato argued long ago, the Truth. Unfortunately, it is not always, if ever, available. Some would deny that the notion of truth, understood in the traditional way as correspondence to reality, is a meaningful or useful concept at all. But even those who continue to adhere to some kind of realism are prepared to recognize that all that we have to work with is judgments, more or less…
Responsibility, Rights, and Welfare
Can Liberal Democracy Cope with Scarcity
Several common arguments claiming that liberal democratic regimes are incapable of dealing with environmental scarcity are examined and found wanting. Markets appear to be capable of allocating non-renewable resources over time in a satisfactory manner, and appropriate policies are available to manage renewable resources. While there is no guarantee that such regimes will succeed, their fundamental ideologies and institutions do not preclude adeq…
