Books by James (University of Victoria Tully

James Tully examines demands for cultural recognition, involving nationalism, Aboriginal rights, feminism, and ethnic minorities. Modern constitutionalism cannot adjudicate such claims justly. Using a historical and critical approach, Tully instead develops a post-imperial philosophy which, he argues, can bring peace to the twenty-first century.

These two volumes present a new kind of political and legal theory that James Tully calls a public philosophy, and a complementary new way of thinking about active citizenship, called civic freedom. The volumes represent a genuine landmark in political theory, from one of its most distinguished practitioners alive today.
