Two of Susan Moller Okin’s articles are discussed:‘Reason and feeling in thinking about justice’, Ethics 99(2), 1989: 229-49 and ‘Mistresses of their own destiny: group rights, gender, and realistic rights of exit’, Ethics 112(2), 2002: 205-30.

Her argument on the handling of illiberal groups in a liberal society is largely accepted, but a question is raised on how to address First Amendment precedents.
