@ Political liberalism, overlapping consensus, and reasonability

   (For ‘Political liberalism in thinkers other than Rawls’ see that)

   (For ‘Rawls and neutrality’ see that)

   (This is really the application of the idea of public justifiability to the fact of moral pluralism)

   (‘Political liberalism’ is a liberal theory of principles to govern the basic structure of society which is not grounded in any one philosophical or religious or comprehensive-moral view, and accordingly could gain the allegiance of people with all such views, including non-liberal ones, as long as they are ‘reasonable’. Such allegiance would be an ‘overlapping consensus’. Rawls – who defines political liberalism as a liberal political conception of justice – also builds in the idea that such a conception includes only certain values – political ones – and that it is grounded in the public political culture of a modern constitutional democracy)
