Progress, Pluralism, and Politics Liberalism and Colonialism, Past and Present.

Williams examines the colonial and anti-colonial arguments of Adam Smith, Immanuel Kant, Jeremy Bentham, and L.T. Hobhouse. He reveals some of the central ambiguities that characterise the ways that liberal thought has dealt with the reality of an illiberal world.
