Liberalism and the Limits of Justice Sandel Michael J.
A liberal society seeks not to impose a single way of life, but to leave its citizens as free as possible to choose their own values and ends. But can any such principles be found? It therefore must govern by principles of justice that do not presuppose any particular vision of the good life.
These are the questions Michael Sandel takes up in this penetrating critique of contemporary liberalism. And if not, what are the consequences for justice as a moral and political ideal? Sandel locates modern liberalism in the tradition of Kant, and focuses on its most influential recent expression in the work of John Rawls.
In the most important challenge yet to Rawls' theory of justice, Sandel traces the limits of liberalism to the conception of the person that underlies it, and argues for a deeper understanding of community than liberalism allows.
