Description
Politics and Equality explores the philosophical and historical foundations of equality, contrasting political equality with economic equality. The essays emphasize the principle of equality before the law, rooted in the belief that all humans are created equal in their intrinsic worth, as opposed to being equal in abilities or outcomes. Highlighting the dangers of coercive redistribution and centralized power, Politics and Equality argues that true liberty flourishes under a system of limited government, free markets, and individual responsibility. It critiques systems of privilege and redistribution, advocating for a society where justice and freedom enable human creativity and prosperity to thrive.
