Rezensionen

'In this timely book, Tim Soutphommasane explains why the ideal liberal citizen is also a patriotic citizen. In so doing, he speaks directly to a deep desire for a philosophy that combines individual liberty with a sense of identity and belonging. His is an important argument that will shape debates in both academic political theory and real politics.' Marc Stears, University of Oxford
