Basic Equality
An innovative argument that vindicates our normative commitment to basic equality, synthesising philosophy, history, and psychologyWhat makes human beings one another’s equals?That we are "basic equals" has become a bedrock assumption in Western moral and political philosophy. And yet establishing why we ought to believe this claim has proved fiendishly difficult, floundering in the face of the many inequalities that characterise the human condition.In this provocative work, Paul Sagar offers a novel approach to explaining and justifying basic equality.Rather than attempting to find an independent foundation for basic equality, he argues, we should instead come to see our commitment to this idea as the result of the practice of treating others as equals.Moreover, he continues, it is not enough to grapple with the problem through philosophy alone—by just thinking very hard, in our armchairs; we must draw insights from history and psychology as well. Sagar writes that, as things stand, there appear to be no good arguments for believing in the truth of basic equality.Indeed, for much of Western intellectual history and social practice, basic inequality has been the default position.How is it then, Sagar asks, that in Western societies, in a period of less than a century, basic equality emerged as the dominant view?Sagar approaches this not as a mere philosophical puzzle, but as a dramatic historical development.In so doing, he shows us what is at stake when human beings treat one another as equals just because they are human beings.

To achieve gender equality, there needs to be a shift in societal norms and attitudes towards gender roles. This includes challenging stereotypes and biases that perpetuate inequality. Additionally, there should be equal access to education, employment opportunities, and leadership positions for people of all genders. Policies and laws that promote gender equality and protect against discrimination and violence are also crucial in creating a more equitable society. Ultimately, fostering a culture of respect, inclusivity, and empowerment for all genders is essential for achieving true gender equality.

Is equality fair?
Equality can be seen as fair because it ensures that everyone is treated the same way and has access to the same opportunities. However, some argue that true fairness may require treating individuals differently based on their unique circumstances and needs. In this sense, equity, which focuses on providing individuals with what they need to be successful, may be a more just approach than strict equality. Ultimately, the concept of fairness can vary depending on the context and the values of the individuals involved.
-
'Freedom or Equality?'
Freedom and equality are both important values, but they can sometimes be in tension with each other. While freedom allows individuals to pursue their own interests and make their own choices, equality ensures that everyone has the same opportunities and rights. Ultimately, a balance between the two is necessary for a just and fair society. It is important to strive for both freedom and equality, recognizing that they are interconnected and mutually reinforcing.

Liberty and Equality
An invaluable reflection on the essence of liberal democracy—and an ideal introduction to the work of political philosopher Raymond AronLiberty and Equality is the first English translation of the last lecture delivered at the Collège de France by Raymond Aron, one of the most influential political and social thinkers of the twentieth century.In this important work, the most prominent French liberal intellectual of the Cold War era presents his views on the core values of liberal democracy: liberty and equality.At the same time, he provides an ideal introduction to key aspects of his thought. Ranging from Soviet ideology to Watergate, Aron reflects on root concepts of democracy and representative government, articulates a notion of liberty or freedom as equal right as distinct from equal outcome, and discusses different kinds of liberties: personal, political, religious, and social.In search of a common truth or at least a common good, and analyzing what he perceives as the crisis of liberal democracies, Aron opens a space for reexamining the relation between liberty and equality.

Is equality bad?
Equality itself is not inherently bad. In fact, striving for equality can lead to a more just and fair society. However, the way in which equality is pursued and implemented can have negative consequences. For example, if equality is achieved through oppressive means or by bringing down certain groups rather than lifting others up, it can be harmful. It's important to consider the nuances of how equality is pursued and to ensure that it is done in a way that uplifts all members of society.

What is fair equality?
Fair equality refers to the principle that all individuals should have equal opportunities and access to resources, regardless of their background or circumstances. It involves ensuring that everyone has a level playing field to pursue their goals and aspirations. Fair equality also involves addressing systemic inequalities and barriers that may prevent certain groups from fully participating in society. Ultimately, fair equality aims to create a more just and inclusive society where everyone has the chance to thrive.

Is equality always fair?
Equality is not always fair because it does not take into account individual differences and circumstances. Fairness involves considering factors such as needs, abilities, and opportunities to ensure that everyone has an equal chance to succeed. Sometimes, providing equitable resources or opportunities to address existing disparities is a more just approach than simply treating everyone the same. Ultimately, fairness requires a balance between equality and equity to ensure that justice is served for all individuals.
