Aprašymas
A testament to what it means to be liberal by one of the most prominent political philosophers of our era.There was a time when liberalism was an ism like any other, but that time, writes Michael Walzer, is gone. "Liberal" now conveys not a specific ideology but a moral stance, so the word is best conceived not as a noun but as an adjective – one is a "liberal democrat" or a "liberal nationalist". Walzer itemizes the characteristics described by "liberal" in an inventory of his own deepest political and moral commitments – among other things, to the principle of equality, to the rule of law, and to a pluralism that is both political and cultural. Unabashedly asserting that liberalism is a universal set of values ("it must be universal", he writes, "since it is under attack everywhere"), Walzer reminds us in this inspiring book why those values are worth fighting for.
