The quest for freedom has always been as much a battle of ideas as it is a popular struggle. Classical liberal pioneers such as John Locke and Adam Smith stressed the inherent worth of the individual, inalienable rights, and the benevolent consequences of the cooperative, peaceful pursuit of one's own happiness. These ideas became the intellectual scaffolding for much of the West's most fundamental institutions and achievements. Yet after its 19th-century high-water mark, classical liberalism lost much of its passion, focus, and popular support. Intellectual trends increasingly began to suppor

In deze tijd lijkt de grens tussen tolerantie en onverschilligheid te vervagen. Bekende publicisten, filosofen, juristen, historici en sociologen denken in dit boek na over een minder vrijblijvende, minder 'lege' tolerantie.Zo schetst men diepgaand de geschiedenis van de tolerantie en geeft men een filosofische beshouwing over het tolerantiebegrip, waarbij een eigen stellingname niet geschuwd wordt. Het deel 'Tolerantie in discussie' bevat een reeks korte artikelen, soms polemisch, dan weer beschrijvend van aard, waarin het onderwerp vanuit een caleidoscopisch oogpunt wordt belicht. Het boek wordt afgesloten met een korte slotbeschouwing waarin men over de betekenis van tolerantie in deze tijd en over de politieke implicaties enkele conclusies trekt.

Liberal individualism, or 'classical liberalism' as it is often called, refers to a political philosophy in which liberty plays the central role. This book demonstrates a conceptual unity within the manifestations of classical liberalism by tracing the history of several interrelated and reinforcing themes. Concepts such as order, justice, rights and freedom have imparted unity to this diverse political ideology by integrating context and meaning. However, they have also sparked conflict, as classical liberals split on a number of issues, such as legitimate exceptions to the 'presumption of liberty', the meaning of 'the public good', natural rights versus utilitarianism, the role of the state in education, and the rights of resistance and revolution. This book explores these conflicts and their implications for contemporary liberal and libertarian thought.
