Unequal Chances: Race, Class and Schooling
Satz, Debra
Theory and Research in Education, v10 n2 p155-170 Jul 2012
This article compares a demanding conception of educational adequacy with the Rawlsian idea of fair equality of opportunity. It defends fair equality of opportunity against criticisms, but argues that it needs to be explicitly anchored in a theory of equal citizenship. (Contains 11 notes.)
