Riley, Jonathan, ‘Isaiah Berlin’s “Minimum of Common Moral Ground” ’, Political Theory 41 no. 1 (2013), 61–89

  • 'This important paper is a definitive milestone in Berlin studies. Riley has an uncannily accurate perception of what IB believed, even when IB doesn’t express it clearly himself. He raises and answers convincingly a number of questions which must surely bother anyone who reads IB with care. In particular he gives the first satisfying account of IB’s apparently paradoxical claim that pluralists can empathise with conduct that they nevertheless wish to resist, if necessary to the death.' (Henry Hardy)
