As I told Vaclav Havel’s gathering in Prague, the citizens of any open society face urgent questions today.
Among them: How do we balance being a nation of open minds while standing by a core set of values? In other words, can we be pluralists without becoming relativists?
I’ll tackle that question vigorously in my next book.
As a starting point, read my latest column in The Globe and Mail.
