Michael Sandel Zitate

My main quarrel with liberalism is not that liberalism places great emphasis on individual rights - I believe rights are very important and need to be respected. The issue is whether it is possible to define and justify our rights without taking a stand on the moral and even sometimes religious convictions that citizens bring to public life.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Mein Hauptstreit mit dem Liberalismus ist nicht, dass der Liberalismus die individuellen Rechte in den Vordergrund stellt - ich glaube, dass Rechte sehr wichtig sind und respektiert werden müssen. Die Frage ist, ob es möglich ist, unsere Rechte zu definieren und zu rechtfertigen, ohne zu den moralischen und manchmal auch religiösen Überzeugungen der Bürger Stellung zu nehmen.

There is an increasing push to compartmentalize faith separately from our life in the public square - and it's not possible - at least, it's not possible if we continue the American tradition of true individual freedom, which also implies individual responsibility. Without an objective moral standard, that's not possible.

I mean, I'm a conservative. I believe that, you know, if you borrow too much, you just build up debts for your children to pay off. You put pressure on interest rates. You put at risk your economy. That's the case in Britain. We're not a reserve currency, so we need to get on and deal with this issue.
