The Limits of Toleration

In light of the contested nature of the limits of toleration, the criteria used to determine these limits are considered. A radical deconstruction of toleration exposes it as a normatively dependent concept, requiring a clear definition. Such a definition centers on six characteristics: the context, an objection component, an acceptance component, specification of the limits of toleration, a requirement of voluntary practice of toleration, & the distinction between toleration practice & the attitude tolerance. From this, a "permission" & "respect" conception of toleration are developed. Attention is given to the latter & its relation to justice, which provides the basis for a justifiable distinction between the three realms of (1) one's ethical views, (2) different views that are tolerable, & (3) different views that are not tolerable. The problem with a perspective on democratic community defined only by an abstract principle of justification is then discussed & rejected, but some remarks are offered on the moral-cultural basis for a democratic & liberal state. From there, some thought is given to the example of right-wing radicalism. The dangers of advocating tolerance are touched on in terms of its ambivalent nature, & a call is made instead to confront prejudice & develop basic respect. J. Zendejas
TOLERATION AND MULTICULTURALISM
In: Critical review: an interdisciplinary journal of politics and society, Band 13, Heft 1-2, S. 115-128
ISSN: 0891-3811
BY VIEWING TOLERATION--WHICH IS USUALLY INTERPRETED AS A PERSONAL ATTITUDE--THROUGH A LENS OF PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE, MICHAEL WALZER LINKS TOLERATION TO POLITICAL ARRANGEMENTS. THE CONSEQUENCE OF THIS APPROACH IS TO BLUR BASIC POLITICAL CATEGORIES SUCH AS THE STATE, POLITICAL POWER, CULTURE, AND POLITICAL CREED. MOREOVER, WHILE WALZER CLEARLY PREFERS AN IMMIGRATION SOCIETY AS EMBODYING THE PRACTICE OF TOLERATION MORE FULLY THAN ANY OTHER REGIME, HE FAILS TO IDENTIFY EITHER ITS CULTURAL OR ITS POLITICAL PRECONDITIONS.

Locke on toleration
In: Cambridge texts in the history of philosophy
"John Locke's Letter Concerning Toleration (1689) is one of the most widely-read texts in the political theory of toleration, and a key text for the liberal tradition. However, Locke also defended toleration more extensively in three subsequent Letters, which he wrote in response to criticism by an Anglican cleric, Jonas Proast. This edition, which includes a new translation of the original Letter, by Michael Silverthorne, enables readers to assess John Locke's theory of toleration by studying both his classic work and essential extracts from the later Letters. An introduction by Richard Vernon sets Locke's theory in its historical context and examines the key questions for contemporary political theorists which arise from this major work in the history of political thought"--
On Republican Toleration

Within the context of the debate about religious symbolism in secular state schools stemming from the 1989 incident involving the expulsion of 3 schoolgirls in France for wearing the traditional Muslim headscarf, this debate is considered here as a form of philosophical engagement with more general principles of toleration, neutrality, & citizenship. Focus is on a central concept invoked in the headscarves debate -- laicite -- best translated as "secularism." The origins of the concept are traced to the French Revolution, describing how it became the official doctrine of the Third Republic (1870-1940) & guided the development of secular state primary education in the 1880s & the subsequent disestablishment of the Catholic Church. Three somewhat different meanings of laicite are identified -- neutrality, autonomy, & community -- & the use of each across French history is demonstrated. It is argued that the headscarves debate became so excessively problematic because it challenged all three of these meanings of laicite simultaneously. K. Hyatt Stewart
