Unequivocal Justice

Unequivocal Justice, 1st Edition, investigates institutional arguments within liberal egalitarian political philosophy. The work addresses the methodological assumptions that lead theorists to reject free-market regimes.

The volume contends that theorists frequently assess politics using an ideal public-interest behavioral standard while applying a nonideal private-interest model to markets and civil society. This asymmetry weakens ideal theoretical treatments of principles such as political liberty, economic sufficiency, fair opportunity, and social equality.

To establish a more balanced framework, the book reexamines these fundamental principles under nonideal conditions by drawing upon political psychology and public choice economics.
