The challenges associated with the issue of migration have led to growing conflicts over the distribution of resources and have put the existing legal order in peril. This has also created dilemmas when it comes to matters of religion. These circumstances have called into question the theory of contemporary liberalism in Germany.
In order to show this, I will analyze a few representatives of contemporary liberal theory. Among them are the philosophers John Rawls, with his ,,Theory of Justice"; Ronald Dworkin and his proposal to further develop Rawls' theory through the creation of an equal starting position; Michael Walzer and his counter to Rawls' theory found in the book ,,Spheres of Justice" in which he presents the idea of a complex equality; as well as Charles Taylor and his theoretical analysis. Based on this analysis, I will present a new concept-proposal of a liberal theory.
