Is equality valuable? This question dominates many discussions of
social justice, which tend to center on whether certain forms of
distributive equality are valuable, such as the equal distribution
of primary social goods. But these discussions often neglect what
is known as social or relational equality. Social equality suggests
that equality is foremost about relationships and interactions
between people, rather than being primarily about distribution. A
number of philosophers have written about the significance of
social equality, and it has also played an important role in
real-life egalitarian movements, such as feminism and civil rights
movements. However, as it has been relatively neglected in
comparison to the debates about distributive equality, it requires
much more theoretical attention. This volume brings together a
collection of ten original essays which present new analyses of
social and relational equality in philosophy and political theory.
The essays analyze the nature of social equality, as well as its
relationship to justice and politics.
