Competition and Cooperation, Equality and Elites.
Flew, Antony
Journal of Philosophy of Education, v17 n2 p267-74 1983
Cooperation and competition are often seen as polar opposites; yet they are not necessarily in opposition. Similarly, quality and elitism are not opposed if the goal of equality is seen as equality of opportunity rather than equality of outcome and the elite are the product of fair competition. (IS)
