Odd bedfellows: Kukathas, Forst and Arendt? An alternative understanding of tolerance using an Arendtian notion of freedom.

Bachelor thesis | Politicologie (BSc)

This thesis seeks to broaden the liberal understanding of tolerance by taking an Arendtian notion of freedom. It will find that liberalism's notion of freedom, resting on the notion of an egalitarian plateau, offers too little room to put a threshold on tolerance, and that Arendt's notion of freedom, based on her understanding of action, offers an alternative basis on which justify a threshold on tolerance.
