Economic and social inequality have become defining features of the world economy in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. While increased inequality has been particularly pronounced in the United States, a similar phenomenon of increasing inequality of incomes and wealth has emerged in the economies of most major western European states. Realizing Equality in Policy brings together leading scholars to address current issues relating to rising inequality as it affects policy in the areas of education, health care, anti-poverty, employment, and economic policy. With contributions from scholars of both luck and relational egalitarianism, the essays reexamine a number of basic assumptions regarding social and economic policy from an egalitarian perspective. They explore gender-based discrimination, international justice, and the possibility for engagement between socialist and left-liberal thought. Rather than focusing on the subtle distinctions that divide egalitarian views, this volume shows that both views have the potential to offer important insights about how differences might be overcome and gaps might be closed. In offering new directions for solving wealth inequality through policy, Realizing Equality in Policy contributes to ongoing conversations in political theory, economic theory, and moral philosophy.
