Egalitarian Liberalism Revisited: On the Meaning and Justification of Social Justice
Häftade böcker. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. 2016. 242 sidor.
Though most persons think that furthering social justice is right, perhaps even obligatory, many disagree about what social justice means. This book provides reasons for thinking that social justice ought to be interpreted as a triune conjunction of desert, equality and self-ownership. These are the alleged cornerstones o egalitarian liberalism. Contrary to common assumptions it is shown that the seemingly non-comparative elements of desert and self-ownership reinforce rather than contradict a robust conception of equality of opportunity. Furthermore, it is shown that ending misrecognition as well as redistributing important goods can serve the same end of creating a more just society.
