Publisher Notes
Liberalisms provides a coherent and comprehensive analytical guide to liberal thinking over the past century. John Gray considers the dominance of liberal thought in Anglo-American political philosophy over the past twenty yearsMwhat liberal thought means and how it might be given a rational foundation. The essays distinguish and assess the varieties of liberalisms which have prevailed in Anglo-American political philosophy over the past century, and investigate how each of these might be justified. All of the major liberal political philosophers are discussedMincluding John Stuart Mill, Herbert Spencer, Karl Popper, Friedrich A. Hayek, John Rawls, and Robert explored. Considering the liberal dominance of recent political philosophy, and the author's contributions to its revival, his conclusion that the liberal perspective has no privileged claim on reason should interest all students of political thought.
