This important book explores the values of equality and diversity as promoted across liberal societies, drawing on various traditions of political and social philosophy, including liberal egalitarianism, existentialism, and elements of post-modernism and post-structuralism. These philosophies are applied to policy and practice debates, especially concerning disability issues, but also relating to gender and multiculturalism. It will be of interest to academics and postgraduate students across a range of social studies disciplines.

Industry Reviews

"You don't need to AGREE that liberal egalitarianism can be rescued from identity politics" by reconciling elements of "analytic" and "continental" philosophy to find Smith's argument fruitful and thought-provoking." Bob Breacher, University of Brighton
