商品描述

This Handbook provides an authoritative exposition of equality of opportunity. It presents the different concepts most commonly associated with equality of opportunity, and discusses the many problems dominating the controversies on equality of opportunity at the theoretical, policy or practical level. The chapters give a concise exposition of the different conceptions and basic concepts of equal opportunities. They clarify variables that are part of the 'algorithm of equal opportunities', e.g. opportunity, equality, non-discrimination, fairness, responsibility, chance and choice, excellence, qualifications, effort, talent, merit, desert, inequality, and risk.

The idea of equality of opportunity has traditionally been associated with a set of largely unquestioned ideals, and over the last 50 years, it has been at the very centre of the major progressive social changes and firmly entrenched in political rhetoric. Yet, the idea of equality of opportunity is far from unquestionable or unproblematic as the only solid assumption different conceptions have in common is their rejection of fixed social relations but not hierarchy itself. Disagreements over the fundamental principles, criticism over the inefficiency of policies aiming to ensure equal opportunities, and objections to their unfairness, all pose questions that current conceptions answer in different ways. This Handbook examines a wide variety of questions about issues of motivation, procedures, genealogy, taxonomy, and compensation.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本手冊提供了對機會平等的權威闡述。它介紹了與機會平等最常相關的不同概念，並討論了在理論、政策或實踐層面上主導機會平等爭議的眾多問題。各章節簡明扼要地闡述了不同的概念和基本概念，以澄清機會平等的「演算法」中的變數，例如機會、平等、非歧視、公平、責任、機遇和選擇、卓越、資格、努力、才能、功績、應得、不平等和風險。

機會平等的概念傳統上與一套很少受到質疑的理想相關聯，並且在過去50年中，它一直是主要進步社會變革的核心，並牢固地根植於政治言論中。然而，機會平等的概念遠非不容置疑或無問題，因為不同概念所共同拒絕的唯一確定假設是對固定社會關係的拒絕，而不是對等級制度本身的拒絕。對於基本原則的分歧、對旨在確保平等機會的政策效率的批評以及對其不公平性的反對，都提出了不同方式回答的問題。本手冊探討了關於動機、程序、源流、分類和補償等各種問題。
