After social democracy
Politics, capitalism and the common life
In place of the mistaken social democratic belief that there is a single goal of social justice or equality, Gray argues that there are distinct principles of fairness appropriate to different circumstances.
This pathbreaking essay shows why social democracy has become obsolete, and why a ‘communitarian liberalism’ is now needed to succeed it. In place of the mistaken social democratic belief that there is a single goal of social justice or equality, Gray argues that there are distinct principles of fairness appropriate to the different circumstances of schools or benefits systems, health or employment. John Gray is a fellow of Jesus College, Oxford. ‘Fascinating’ Guardian
