Permissible Secrets
This article offers an account of the information condition on morally valid consent in the context of sexual relations. The account is grounded in rights. It holds that a person has a sufficient amount of information to give morally valid consent if, and only if, she has all the information to which she has a claim-right. A person has a claim-right to a piece of information if, and only if, a. it concerns a deal-breaker for her; b. it does not c…
What is equality of opportunity in education?
There is widespread disagreement about what equality of opportunity in education requires. For some it is that each child is legally permitted to go to school. For others it is that each child receives the same educational resources. Further interpretations abound. This fact presents a problem: when politicians or academics claim they are in favour of equality of opportunity in education, it is unclear what they mean and debate is hindered by mut…
Bottlenecks
Joseph Fishkin believes that many societies suffer from ‘bottlenecks’ in opportunity. These are constrictions in the social structure through which people must pass in order to achieve valuable goods. They come in three varieties: qualification bottlenecks (exams and other forms of test), developmental bottlenecks (skills and attributes one has to acquire to succeed), and instrumental-good bottlenecks (instrumental goods, such as money, individua…
Hypothetical Insurance and Higher Education
What level of government subsidy of higher education is justified, in what form, and for what reasons?We answer these questions by applying the hypothetical insurance approach, originally developed by Ronald Dworkin in his work on distributive justice.On this approach, when asking how to fund and deliver public services in a particular domain, we should seek to model what would be the outcome of a hypothetical insurance market: we stipulate that …
Social Injustice
Social Injustice is a collection of thirteen essays addressing a variety of topics including methodology in applied political theory, exploitation, torture, contractarianism and democracy. Only two of the essays are previously unpublished. These sandwich the other essays. The first is a defence of the idea that social injustice is an important research topic. The last is a taxonomy of three varieties of socialism (liberal, democratic and market) …
Mistakes and the continuity test
In a series of recent articles, Matthew Clayton, Andrew Williams and Rasmus Sommer Hansen and Soren Flinch Midtgaard argue that a key virtue of Ronald Dworkin’s account of distributive justice, Equality of Resources, is that it provides a distribution that is continuous with the evaluations of the individuals whom it ranges over. The idea of continuity, or as Williams calls it the ‘continuity test’, limits distributive claims in at least one impo…
Broome on Fairness and Lotteries
John Broome argues that when all claims cannot be perfectly fairly satisfied in outcome, the contribution to fairness from entering claims into a lottery, and so providing them some surrogate satisfaction, ought to be weighed against, and can outweigh, what fairness can be achieved directly in outcome. I argue that this is a mistake. Instead, I suggest that any contribution to fairness from entering claims into a lottery is lexically posterior to…
