Rethinking Equality

Exploring the complexities of inequality despite formal equality among citizens, this book critically examines contemporary theories of equality and their relevance to current societal issues. It connects these theories to the politics of citizenship, particularly in the context of neoliberalism's influence on welfare states and the transition from 'social' to 'active' citizenship. Providing an accessible and comprehensive analysis, it serves as a vital resource for students and scholars interested in political theory, equality, and citizenship debates.
