In A Moral Theory of Political Reconciliation Colleen Murphy develops a rich
and potentially transformative account of political reconciliation. The potential of this
account is not fully realized because of limitations in how Murphy conceptualizes political
relationships. For example, group-differentiated integration into states opens up important
questions about partial legality and group-differentiated experiences of repression that
Murphy does not address. However, Murphy’s framework is well-suited to take up these
questions, once they are acknowledged, and this is an important strength of the work.
