Equality

"The chapters in Equality: More or Less represent the work of scholars at Bard College and West Point. Their research falls within the areas of history, religion, legal theory, social science, ethics, and philosophy. The regions covered include the Middle and Far East, Europe, and America; the time periods studied are both contemporary and historical. Each essay is a well-detailed exploration that assumes the reader has no prior acquaintance with the topic. Together, the studies reveal both conflicting standards of equality and patterns of pernicious inequality. In an ideal world, equality and inequality among humans would vary in acceptable proportion, with an increase of one ensuring decrease of the other. Unfortunately, as the studies illustrate, any such expectation of progress in the real world is almost routinely thwarted." -- Back cover.
