This collection of facsimile articles reprints the most influential essays on the subject of justice and equality published in the last hundred years. They represent the theoretical debates and practical aspirations of democratic societies and the institutions that govern them. Areas of coverage include the meaning, scope, and practical parameters defining contemporary notions of justice and social equality; the conceptual foundation for requiring minimum justice and equality; who is entitled to justice and equality and who is obliged to provide these conditions; the legitimacy and limitations of universal, procedural, legal concepts of justice and equality.

This book contains a collection of important recent writing on left-liberalism, a political philosophy that recognizes both strong liberty rights and strong demands for material equality. Essays from leading comtemporary political philosophers such as Nozick, Van Parijs and Kymlica are included in this volume.
This volume contains some of the historically most important
discussions of the philosophical foundations of
left-libertarianism. Like the more familiar right-libertarianism
(such as that of Nozick), left-libertarianism holds that agents own
themselves (and thus owe no service to others except as the result
of voluntary action). Unlike right-libertarianism, however,
left-libertarianism holds that natural resources are owned by the
members of society in some egalitarian manner, and may be
appropriated only with their permission, or with a significant
payment to them.

This is the sixth volume of Oxford Studies in Political Philosophy.
Since its revival in the 1970s political philosophy has been a
vibrant field in philosophy, one that intersects with
jurisprudence, normative economics, political theory in political
science departments, and just war theory. OSPP aims to publish some
of the best contemporary work in political philosophy and these
closely related subfields. This volume features eight papers that
address a range of central topics and represent cutting edge work
in the field.

This is the second volume of Oxford Studies in Political
Philosophy. Since its revival in the 1970s political philosophy has
been a vibrant field in philosophy, one that intersects with
jurisprudence, normative economics, political theory in political
science departments, and just war theory. OSPP aims to publish some
of the best contemporary work in political philosophy and these
closely related subfields. This volume features eight papers and an
introduction. The papers address a range of central topics and
represent cutting edge work in the field. They are grouped into
three main themes: ideal theory, the moral assessment of states,
and issues in social reliations.
David Gauthier's Morals by Agreement (1986) is the most complete
and suggestive contractarian theory of morality since the work of
Rawls. In this anthology a number of prominent moral and political
philosophers offer a critical assessment of Gauthier's theory and
its three main projects: developing a contractarian foundation for
morality, defending a theory of rational choice, and supporting the
claim that rationality requires one to keep one's agreements. An
introduction sets out Gauthier's project, while Gauthier himself
has the last word, responding to the critiques. This collection
will interest moral and political philosophers, social theorists,
and specialists in the philosophy and theory of law as well as
management sciences.
