In this important book, an eminent political theorist examines five 'regimes of toleration' - from multinational empires to immigrant socities- and describes the strengths and weaknesses of each regime, as well as the varying forms of toleration and exclusion each fosters. Michael Walzer shows how power, class, and gender interact with religion, race, and ethnicity in the different regimes and discusses how toleration works - and how it should work in multicultural socities like the United States.
