In present-day political and moral philosophy the idea that all persons are in some way moral equals is an almost universal premise, with its defenders often claiming that philosophical positions that reject the principle of equal respect and concern do not deserve to be taken seriously. This has led to relatively few attempts to clarify, or indeed justify, 'basic equality' and the principle of equal respect and concern. Such clarification and justification, however, would be direly needed. After all, the ideas, for instance, that Adolf Hitler and Nelson Mandela have equal moral worth, or that a rape victim owes equal respect and concern to both her rapist and to her own caring brother, seem to be utterly implausible. Thus, if someone insists on the truth of such ideas, he or she owes his or her audience an explanation. The authors in this volume-which breaks new ground by engaging egalitarians and anti-egalitarians in a genuine dialogue-attempt to shed light into the dark. They try to clarify the concepts of "basic equality", "equal moral worth","equal respect and concern", "dignity," etc; and they try to (partially) justify-or to refute-the resulting clarified doctrines. The volume thus demonstrates that the claim that all persons have equal moral worth, are owed equal concern and respect, or have the same rights is anything but obvious. This finding has not only significant philosophical but also political implications.

主要讀瞭8 Against equal respect and concern,equal rights,and egalitarian impartiality。 針對p151-155的反對qual的幾個論證做瞭可能的反駁。
評分本書標題這個問題,其學理意義未必有它的意識形態論戰意義大。曆史上霍布斯康德等人所關心的,與其說是“人是否平等擁有道德價值”,不如說是“人為何應被平等對待,即使他們未必在根本上是平等的”這種更有實踐意義的問題。而且,這個問題暗示瞭平等基於相似,但這個暗示本身就值得推敲。
