Summary:	William Galston is a distinguished political philosopher who also served from 1993-1995 in the Clinton Administration. He argues that value pluralism undergirds a kind of liberal politics that enables individuals and groups to live in accordance with their deepest beliefs about what gives meaning and purpose to life.
