"One of Juliet Williams's many achievements in her valuable exploration of liberal concern with limited government is her bold methodological challenge to the limits of liberal theorizing. In a work ranging from Rawls to reality television, she demonstrates how rigorous political theory can and must be responsive to its popular contexts." - Jodi Dean, author of Publicity's Secret: How Technoculture Capitalizes on Democracy
Provides an assessment of the developments in Anglo-American liberal theorizing about limited government. This book follows a comparative study of canonical liberal philosophers Hayek and Rawls, and reveals a direction for conceptualizing limited government in the twenty-first century. It draws on scholarship in the field of democratic theory.
