Punishing Liberals or Rehabilitating Liberalism?

Ronald J. Terchek and Stanley C. Brubaker

American Political Science Review, 1989, vol. 83, issue 4, 1309-1316

Abstract: In the September 1988 issue of this Review, Stanley C. Brubaker argued that liberals strive for neutrality concerning how people should live and that this moral ambivalence prevented them from punishing. In this Controversy, Ronald Terchek denies that liberalism is crippled by moral relativism or incapacitated for punishment. In return, Brubaker defends his firm no to the question, Can liberals punish?
