Somebody needs to add info on Political Liberalism. Hermeneus 22:41 Feb 26, 2003 (UTC)
Inserted exact birth and death dates, added links to Robert Nozick and Isaiah Berlin (who definitely needs an article). The earlier version contained a rather confusing paragraph whose meaning I believe to be captured by the new text except in so far as it describes generic liberal ideas that are more naturally associated with John Locke, James Madison and John Stuart Mill. -- Alan Peakall 14:40 Nov 28, 2002 (UTC)
- Didn't Nozick later repudiate his own libertarian/monetarist views in favor of a liberal Rawlsian conception?
-
- Weren't they both like, huge feygalas?
Why is Peter Singer listed in the "See Also" section? Kant, Habermas, Nozick -- these I could easily understand, but Singer? Makes no sense to me. 21 Oct 2005
I think the 'see also' reference to Singer is there so the reader can contrast Singers Utilitarian stance with Rawls anti Utilitarian thesis. 15 Aug 2006
[edit] Liberalism
Since Rawls is THE dominate figure in 20th century liberalism, it seems to make sense to have the liberalism box there, no? Vincent Vecera 18:57, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
- Does the box help the reader to navigate RAWLS'S contributions to liberalism? I think not... Why not create a Rawls specific template? (like at Steven Pinker or Richard Dawkins). In fact, I think I might just do that! Mikkerpikker ... 09:39, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
- I've gone ahead & created a Rawls specific template Template:Rawls & I've added them the the relevant articles. Mikkerpikker ... 12:58, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Abraham Lincoln as an influence?
Is this really accurate? I've never heard of it before. The link with Kant is accurage but not sure about Lincoln, he wasn't really a philosopher (from what I know about him, which to be fair isn't much).Cxk271 15:50, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Date
Does anyone know the publication date for Political Liberalism? The article doesn't include one.
