John Gray has argued for a distinctive form of 'agonistic liberalism'. This arises from three themes: his rejection of 'the Enlightenment project'; his acceptance of the thesis of value-pluralism; and his endorsing of the idea of modus vivendi as the appropriate politics for the modern world. Although Gray has challenged much of orthodox contemporary Anglo-American political theory in interesting ways, it is still open to question whether he has either offered a convincing diagnosis of political modernity or if his own responses successfully avoid some of the problems that he has identified in other forms of liberalism. |
