Description

Though dominant in political philosophy, and highly influential in other normative disciplines such as law and medical ethics, the egalitarian liberal theory of justice has been neglected by education scholars.

Harry Brighouse argues that egalitarian liberalism is committed to two principles of educational justice - the principles of autonomy and of educational equality.

He explores what these principles mean, and shows they conflict with some widely held educational dogmas.

He goes on to reveal why it is difficult to evaluate existing policies and practices in the light of justice, but attempts to overcome these difficulties in his discussions of selective schooling, faith schools and parental choice.
