Governments and institutions, perhaps even more than markets, determine who gets what in our society. This title offers a systematic explanation of what we mean by fairness in distributing public resources and burdens, and applies the theory to actual cases. |
| Synopsis: |
Governments and institutions, perhaps even more than markets, determine who gets what in our society. They make the crucial choices about who pays the taxes, who gets into college, who gets medical care, who gets drafted, where the hazardous waste dump is sited, and how much we pay for public services. Debate about these issues inevitably centers on the question of whether the solution is "fair." In this book, H. Peyton Young offers a systematic explanation of what we mean by fairness in distributing public resources and burdens, and applies the theory to actual cases. |
