Recasting Egalitarianism by Karla Hoff
Addresses the challenges posed by a globally integrated economy and the economic roles played by information and motivation. The text argues for an egalitarian redistribution of assets - land, capital and housing - and the beneficial disciplining effects of competition.
Recasting Egalitarianism is an exceptionally stimulating collection of essays.. compulsory reading for everyone concerned with the policies and politics of equality. -- Frank Vandenbrouke, former Vice-Prime Minister of Belgium of leader of the Socialistiche Partij
This is a timely, original and enormously useful book for rethinking alternatives to the status quo, in Latin America and elsewhere. -- Jorge G. Castaneda, author of Utopia Unarmed: The Latin American Left after the Cold War; and Campanero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara
