Abstract
In ‘Liberalism and communitarianism: a misconceived debate’ I argued that communitarians advance plausible descriptive and normative claims but that these are compatible with liberalism.1 I also argued that some communitarians affirm an implausible meta-ethical thesis which liberals disavow. Stephen Mulhall and Adam Swift make seven criticisms of my analysis.2 Their first three criticisms focus on my treatment of the descriptive communitarian thesis that individuals ‘conceive their identity … as defined to some extent by the community of which they are a part’.3
