Abstract:
|
This paper explores the possibility that the principle of basic equality might be explicated by reference to the idea that humans constitute a "single-status" community. It explores some difficulties with the idea of status in its original legal habitat, but concludes that it is a promising vehicle for expressing ideas about moral equality. |
