Ronald Dworkin on the Unity of Value

Are values such as liberty and equality ultimately compatible? Ronald Dworkin believes they are. In this episode of the Philosophy Bites podcast he explains why he thinks that philosophers such as Isaiah Berlin were wrong to opt for pluralism. There is, he maintains, a right answer about how we should live.

Reminds me of the Beatles song "We Can Work It Out" as they try to demonize the other side.

I hadn't thought of liberty/equality before but have been thinking of Justice/Peace being at odds.
