• Resumen

  • In this Reply, I argue that the Okin/Rawls debate is a debate within ideal theory; so if ideal theory is the problem, Okin’s feminist critique of liberalism will not help. I argue in addition, however, that Rawlsian ideal theory is more helpful than we might think in addressing the threat of illiberal populism to really-existing constitutional democracies, and that before we despair we should up our liberal game.
