{"product_id":"liberal-equality-amy-gutmann-9780521296656","title":"Liberal Equality","description":"This book makes a significant contribution to the tradition of liberal political theory: it explores the foundations and limits of the idea of equality within that theory and offers a sustained argument for a persuasive new view of liberalism. Liberal thinking has always displayed a tension between the claims of liberty and those of equality. Professor Gutmann examines the contributions of liberal theorists from Locke to Rawls on the subject of two kinds of equality - equality of opportunity to participate and the equal distribution of economic goods. Valuing both, she shows that, far from being alternatives, the two ideals are compatible to a much greater degree than has previously been thought. Liberal Equality restores egalitarianism to political theory in a way that will forcefully challenge its critics to deeper reflection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Amy Gutmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 052129665X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521296656\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/1980\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.74d","brand":"Amy Gutmann","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43920002875647,"sku":"9780521296656","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7b2b8704-c594-4b52-b1c0-823a0df2b6a6.jpg?v=1680813071","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/liberal-equality-amy-gutmann-9780521296656","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
