Description

"In recent years, the concepts of individual autonomy and political liberalism have been the subject of intense debate, but these discussions have occurred largely within separate academic disciplines. Autonomy and the Challenges to Liberalism contains for the first time new essays devoted to foundational questions concerning both the notion of the autonomous self and the nature and justification of liberalism." "Written by leading figures in moral, legal, and political theory, this volume covers, among other things, the following topics: the nature of the self and its relation to autonomy, the social dimensions of autonomy and the political dynamics of respect and recognition, and the concept of autonomy underlying the principles of liberalism."--BOOK JACKET
