Zonder tolerantie zouden onze moderne maatschappijen niet kunnen functioneren. Tolerantie als idee is bij iedereen bekend en roept automatisch de reactie op: Natuurlijk, het accepteren van de 'ander'! Ook voor Walzer geldt dat tolerantie betekent: Het accepteren van anderen, van andere culturele, etnische groepen. Walzer geeft echter aan dat 'ware' tolerantie niet alleen acceptatie van de 'ander'is, maar ook de 'ander' respecteren. Vanuit deze omschrijving van tolerantie behandelt Walzer enkele actuele vragen: Waar eindigt tolerantie en begint relativisme? Hoe verhoudt de diversiteit, die ons dwingt tot tolerantie, zich tot de notie van gemeenschappelijkheid, tot het streven om een stabiele (politieke) en legitieme (morele) maatschappelijke orde te creëren? En, tot slot, waar ligt de verantwoordelijkheid van de 'ander', van de 'minderheid'? Daarna analyseert Walzer hoe tolerantie in diverse maatschappijvormen tot uiting komt en bepleit hij een postmoderne variant van tolerantie. (Bron: covertekst)

"Many of the successful campaigns for national liberation in the years following World War II were initially based on democratic and secular ideals. Once established, however, the newly independent nations had to deal with entirely unexpected religious fierceness. Michael Walzer, one of America's foremost political thinkers, examines this perplexing trend by studying India, Israel, and Algeria, three nations whose founding principles and institutions have been sharply attacked by three completely different groups of religious revivalists: Hindu militants, ultra-Orthodox Jews and messianic Zionists, and Islamic radicals. In his provocative, well-reasoned discussion, Walzer asks why these secular democratic movements have failed to sustain their hegemony: Why have they been unable to reproduce their political culture beyond one or two generations? In a postscript, he compares the difficulties of contemporary secularism to the successful establishment of secular politics in the early American republic--thereby making an argument for American exceptionalism but gravely noting that we may be less exceptional today"--
