This book elaborates, illuminates, and illustrates a confident and attractive account of social and political liberalism in light of a rich understanding of flourishing and fulfilment rooted in a version of natural law theory. Examining issues in ethics, law, and politics - including consumer responsibility, the assignment of grades by teachers, deception by lawyers, war and empire, and the use of victim-impact statements in parole decisions - Gary Chartier shows how natural law theory can effectively support pluralism, diversity, social equality, integrity, peace, and freedom.

'Most particularly in an age of illiberal populism, 'liberalism' urgently needs redefinition, away from its bizarre US definition as yet another collectivism. Chartier's brilliant and wide-ranging book defends a new, and old, liberalism in detail. It is, as he says, 'a confident reassertion of liberalism', but willing to listen to the other side, and to consider. His 'radical' liberalism is in fact a modest and reasonable program for a flourishing world of natural-law equals.' Deirdre N. McCloskey, University of Illinois, Chicago
