About this book

Ronald Dworkin's work on equality has shaped debates in the field of distributive justice for nearly three decades. In this book Alexander Brown attempts to provide a critique but also a defence of that work, and to extend equality of resources globally.

Reviews

'Packed with arguments and insights, this excellent adaptation of Dworkin's equality of resources to the global sphere is a welcome addition to the growing literature on global distributive justice, and will be sure to excite wide-ranging discussion and criticism.' - Andrea Sangiovanni, King's College, London
