Criticisms[edit]

Specifically the Vieira piece. The cited quote is taken out of context. It implies that classic liberalism is incompatible with "democratic" principles.

And yet, reading further down the cited article, we come across this: "We show that, unlike in Amartya Sen’s seminal contribution, classical liberal views of individual autonomy and freedom – as embodied in the harm principle – can provide consistent foundations for collective evaluations, and are consistent with the fundamental democratic principle of unanimity."

Proposed that the section be rewritten to more correctly reflect Vieira's views. Because, TBH, this looks like someone selectively quoted to make their point, while deliberately ignoring the rest of the article. Rumplestiltskin1992 (talk) 04:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
