Liberals and Cannibals: The Implications of Diversity

Viac o knihe

The collection of essays explores the limitations of liberal thought, particularly in relation to the tension between relativism and moral universalism in contemporary politics. Steven Lukes critiques the relativist stance that emphasizes distinct cultural and moral communities, arguing its incoherence. By integrating insights from anthropology and philosophy, he addresses themes such as social justice, identity politics, and human rights, while also drawing on Isaiah Berlin's ideas to illuminate these complex debates.
