Abstract

IN THIS ARTICLE PATRICK NEAL EXAMINES RONALD DWORKIN'S DEFENSE OF LIBERALISM IN TERMS OF GOVERNMENTAL NEUTRALITY ON THE SUBJECT OF WHAT THE GOOD LIFE IS. HE ARGUES THAT NO GOVERNMENT CAN PRACTICE SUCH NEUTRALITY AND, THEN, GOES ON TO SUGGEST HOW A MORE VIABLE DEFENSE OF LIBERALISM MIGHT BE DEVELOPED.
