While the capabilities theory has avoided many of the conceptual difficulties that have undermined competing accounts of egalitarian justice, recent criticisms have raised questions regarding the focus, structure and justification of the theory. In this volume, leading scholars present new and original essays that address these controversies. <Routledge innovations in political theory ;18.Social justiceDistributive justiceEqualityElectronic books.Social justice.Distributive justice.Equality.303.3/72Kaufman Alexander949067MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910450993103321Capabilities equality2145184UNINA
