Frontmatter -- Contents -- About the Authors -- On Exit: Idea, Context, Topics and Open Questions / Borchers, Dagmar / Vitikainen, Annamari -- Interrogating Exit in Multiculturalist Theorizing: Conditions and Limitations / Holzleithner, Elisabeth -- Exit, Freedom and Gender / Kukathas, Chandran -- Calculating on Identity? The Costs and Benefits of the Costs-of-Exit Debate / Borchers, Dagmar -- Exit, Identity, and Membership / Vitikainen, Annamari -- Exit: The Temporal Dimension / Perez, Nahshon -- Individual and/or Associational Autonomy?

Summary: Within liberal multicultural societies, the right of exit has assumed prominent position in the negotiations between the basic rights of individuals and the rights of cultural or religious groups to govern their internal affairs. The nature, role and scope of application of such a right are, however, dependent on various factors. These include the character of the group from which one wishes to leave, the surrounding society to which one wishes to enter, the role and status of the person who wants to exit, as well as the framework within which the responsibilities of different actors (individuals, groups, state) are negotiated. Whereas the right of exit is one of the central elements of any liberal democracy, several theoretical as well as practical difficulties persist. On Exit addresses some of the most pressing theoretical difficulties and gives normative guidance to the more concrete issues of cultural accommodation. Amongst the contributors to the volume are included political scientists, philosophers, legal scholars and experts on religion, thus providing genuinely interdisciplinary perspectives on the issues on exit.
