Tolerance: Human Fragility and the Quest for Justice:
Sheds new light on the liberal democratic values of
toleration, taking into account the fragility of human moral
ventures in general – within and beyond the Western liberal
tradition;
Broadly considers the limits of tolerance as they have
stemmed from sincere efforts to define justice in a secular
or a postsecular manner, together with its related rights,
responsibilities, and virtues;
Clarifies various forms of response to human needs as
connected to the condition of human fragility as well as the
persistent quest for justice.
