The book addresses key issues such as systemic discrimination, affirmative action, labor market disparities, and the moral obligations of institutions and individuals in ensuring equal access to opportunities. Through critical analysis, contributors debate whether true equality can be achieved in the presence of historical disadvantages and ongoing biases, particularly against women and minority groups.
By combining normative theory with empirical evidence, Equal Opportunity offers a balanced perspective on contentious topics, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars in philosophy, ethics, law, public policy, and economics. The book encourages readers to question deeply held assumptions about merit, justice, and the role of the state in rectifying inequality.
