Philosopher Agnes Callard and economist Robin Hanson explore the complexities of multiculturalism, embracing substantive disagreements, the relationship between confidence and knowledge in inquiry, navigating cultural diversity, the paradox of tolerance, extremes of tolerance in cultural practices, and the complexities of decentralization and centralization in world governance.
