Liberal Theory and Its Critics

Much of the work in contemporary political philosophy is devoted to the debate between liberals and communitarians, who are divided on the question of the priority of the right or the good. We will familiarize ourselves with this debate, and then address the important challenges to liberal political philosophy coming from philosophy of religion, critical theory, feminist philosophy, and post-structuralism.
