Tolerance: Between Forbearance and Acceptance by Hans Oberdiek (English) Paperba

Description: Tolerance by Hans Oberdiek Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Tolerance—though seen to be necessary on a world divided by deep differences—often strikes us as grudgingly given and resentfully received. Conceived more widely, however, tolerance can be seen to occupy the difficult, and contested, terrain between merely putting up with and accepting others. Publisher Description Tolerance, while proving necessary in todays varied world, can be grudgingly given and resentfully received. Toleration may be necessary, but it has little appeal, and certainly cannot serve as either a central or unifying doctrine in a thriving moral or political philosophy. A deeper understanding of what tolerance requires leads us to see that it demands more. Once we inculcate the attitude of tolerance in ourselves and our politics, tolerance can occupy the difficult and contested. It does not make sense, for instance, if we already fully accept a practice; nor does it make sense if what we are asked to tolerate is intolerable: we appeal to those inclined to be intolerant to soften their judgement, to grant that what they disapprove can, and should be, permitted. What needs to be done is to show how tolerance is rooted in an appealing moral and political theory. Only then will toleration move beyond either simple expediency or grudging forbearance. Author Biography Hans Oberdiek is professor of philosophy at Swarthmore College in Swarthmore, Pennsylvania.
