Synopsis

Autonomy and Liberalism concerns the foundations and implications of a particular form of liberal political theory. Colburn argues that one should see liberalism as a political theory committed to the value of autonomy, understood as consisting in an agent deciding for herself what is valuable and living her life in accordance with that decision. He then goes on to consider what this commitment amounts to in terms of a substantial theory of political morality and explain why he takes it to be superior to the various other liberal theories in current circulation.
