Liberalism and the Limits of Power PDF
by J. Williams
- Information
Description
This book provides the first critical assessment of important recent developments in Anglo-American liberal theorizing about limited government.
Following a comparative study of canonical liberal philosophers Hayek and Rawls, the book reveals a new direction for conceptualizing limited government in the twenty-first century, highlighting the central role that democratic politics - rather than philosophical principles - should play in determining the uses and limits of state power in a liberal regime.
Williams draws on recent scholarship in the field of democratic theory and cultural studies in arguing for a shift in the ways liberals approach the study of politics.
