‘‘The family disintegrates, in a natural manner and essentially through the principle of personality,
into apluralityof families whose relation to one another is in general that of self-sufficient concrete
persons and consequently of an external kind’’ (ibid., §181, 219).

    February 2, 2005: ‘‘In the long term, the peace we seek will only be achieved by eliminating the
    conditions that feed radicalism and ideologies of murder. If whole regimes of the world remain in
    despair and grow in hatred, they will be the recruiting grounds for terror, and that terror will stalk
    America and other free nations for decades. The only force powerful enough to stop the rise of
    tyranny and terror, and replace hatred with hope, is the force of human freedom. Our enemies
    know this, and that is why the terrorist Zarqawi recently declared war on what he called the ‘evil
    principle’ of democracy. And we’ve declared our own intention: America will stand with the allies
    of freedom to support democratic movements in the Middle East and beyond, with the ultimate
    goal of ending tyranny in our world’’ (http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/02).

    Hurra television networks, May 5, 2004 (CNN.com 6 May 2004 http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALL

    and 5, 2004, but have not been able to find a corresponding print version.

  7. Convergent studies that have linked liberalism’s constitutive outside with its internal oper-
    ations (as opposed to treating its involvement with colonial or imperial discourses as ‘‘alien intru-
    sions,’’ to use Barry Hindess’s phrase) include: Uday Mehta,Liberalism and Empire: A Study in
    Nineteenth-Century Thought(Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1999); Dipesh Chakrabarty,
    Provincializing Europe: Postcolonial Thought and Historical Difference(Princeton: Princeton Univer-
    sity Press, 2000); Paul Gilroy,The Black Atlantic: Modernity and Double Consciousness(London:
    Verso, 1993); and Barry Hindess and Christine Helliwell, ‘‘The ‘Empire of Uniformity’ and the

  10. A decisive change, Williams argues, comes with Herder in the late eighteenth century, who
    insisted on the pluralization of culture across nations and periods, as well as among social and
    economic groups within any given nation (ibid., 89).

  12. Seyla Benhabib,The Claims of Culture: Equality and Diversity in the Global Era(Princeton:
    Princeton University Press, 2002), 106. Benhabib elaborates: ‘‘These norms expand on the princi-
    ples of universal respect and egalitarian reciprocity, which are crucial to a discourse ethic....
    voluntary self-ascription and freedom of exit and association expand on the concept of persons as
    self-interpreting and self-defining beings whose actions and deeds are constituted through culturally
    informed narratives’’ (132).
