In this sweeping and provocative history, one of the world's leading historians of ideas tells the story of the idea of equality from its ancient Greek roots to the present day. From the Athenian polis to the American Revolution to the modern civil rights movement, he traces the long and tortuous path toward a more just and equal world.
Along the way, he challenges many of our assumptions about equality. He shows that the idea of equality is not a natural or inevitable one, but rather a hard-fought and often fragile achievement. He also shows that equality is not simply a matter of legal rights, but also of social and economic conditions.
This book is a timely and important reminder that the struggle for equality is far from over. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the history of this vital idea and its implications for our future.
