Beskrivning

One of the central debates within contemporary Anglo-American political philosophy concerns how to formulate an egalitarian theory of distributive justice which gives coherent expression to egalitarian convictions and withstands the most powerful anti-egalitarian objections. This book brings together many of the key contributions to that debate by some of the world's leading political philosophers: Richard Arneson, G.A. Cohen, Ronald Dworkin, Thomas Nagel, Derek Parfit, John Rawls, T.M. Scanlon, and Larry Temkin.

'The editors are to be congratulated on having put together a collection of leading contributions to the debate about equality among political philosophers in recent years. A number of the pieces are quite hard to obtain, so their appearance is doubly welcome.' - Brian Barry, Columbia University
