Social equality emerged as an approach in philosophy in the late
1990s, and is now a topic in most undergraduate courses in
political philosophy. Its idea is that justice is not only a matter
of distributing goods or welfare equally, but rather a matter of
achieving a society in which individuals are on equal terms. The
essays in The Equal Society aim to move the concept of social
equality forward by exploring its connections with other areas of
philosophy, such as the critical philosophy of race, and
recognition theory. It examines how historical philosophy -
Platonic, Kantian and African approaches to equality - can inform
current thought. And it depicts how the social equality approach
can be applied to equality in higher education, egalitarian social
relations in the organisation of corporations, and the gendered
division of labour. There has not yet been an essay collection
dedicated specifically to social equality. The essays in this book
are specifically written for this volume, by internationally
renowned, leading scholars.
