Abstract
The author defends a version of justificatory liberalism against a line of criticism developed by Christopher Eberle. Along the way, a conception of respect that liberal citizens owe to each other qua citizens is proposed. According to thins conception, respect requires citizens to both seek and find public justifications for their favored coercive laws.
