The Nature and Limits of Human Equality

Autor John Charvet
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 aug 2013
The belief in equality as the basis of a just society is fundamental to the dominant western, liberal viewpoint. Yet, the standard individualist justification for it is weak and contradictory. This book provides a radically new communitarian account of the value of equality and establishes it's proper limits.

Recenzii

“Charvet sets out to provide us with not only a detailed account of basic equality and where it originates, but also to present us with a new and unique account of how basic equality and egalitarian political ethics, that is the equal distribution of equal rights and duties amongst free citizens, go together. … Charvet’s book is an intriguing read for all those interested in questions of basic equality … .” (Fabian Schuppert, Res Publica, Vol. 22, 2016)
