contemporary liberalism  

Definition(s)

  • The political theory of contemporary liberalism is dominated by the figure of John Rawls. In his two most famous works, A Theory of Justice (1971) and Political Liberalism (1993), Rawls fashioned more or less demanding liberal conceptions of political morality that represent the point of departure for alternative liberal and nonliberal conceptions.
