2007 Dunbar Lecture
March 20, 7:30 p.m., AC 215

James P. Sterba (U. of Notre Dame)

"Why Everyone Should Agree that Economic Inequality is Unjustified"

Contemporary libertarians maintain that liberty understood as an ideal of noninterference conflicts with any substantive ideal of equality. I argue that just the opposite is true - that the libertarian's own ideal of liberty leads to the requirements of a substantive ideal of equality. Since an ideal of liberty understood as noninterference is generally required as a minimalist political ideal, if I can show that a substantive ideal of equality is required by this ideal then really everyone should agree that economic inequality is unjustified.
