520 $aCivility, political or social, has not come easily to humankind in the twentieth century, as the violence of the times amply illustrates; it has been battered and tried by the fears and uncertainties spreading the world over.
520 8 $aBut Glenn Tinder argues persuasively in Tolerance and Community that to be civil is nothing less than to be civilized, and that we must move beyond the traditional arguments of John Locke and John Stuart Mill - rooted in individualism, rationalism, and historical optimism - toward a more communal and more realistic concept of tolerance.
520 8 $aAs one of the nation's foremost thinkers, Tinder believes that tolerance is crucial to the achievement of the right kind of community. He asks how we can really be serious about truth and about our relations with one another while still making room in our world for people who disagree with us. Communication grounded in the principles of veracity and responsibility plays a crucial role in Tinder's community.
520 8 $aPrincipled openness to others, even amid the risks inherent in freedom of speech, allows tolerance to be understood, not as detachment from others, but as attentiveness to them.
520 8 $aTinder also highlights the indispensability of political prudence in making the practical decisions about tolerance faced by both citizens and government. In the course of his argument, he addresses the strengths and weaknesses of traditional liberalism on the subject of tolerance, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of conservatism and radicalism.
