The Conflict Between Liberty and Equality

By Arthur Twini Hadley and Arthur Twining Hadley

Book Overview

""The Conflict Between Liberty and Equality"" is a philosophical treatise by Arthur Twining Hadley that explores the tension between two fundamental values in modern society: liberty and equality. Hadley argues that these two values are often at odds with each other, and that attempts to maximize one often come at the expense of the other. He examines the historical and philosophical roots of both concepts, tracing their development from ancient Greek and Roman thought to the modern era. Hadley also considers the practical implications of this conflict, exploring how it plays out in areas such as politics, economics, and social justice. Ultimately, he suggests that finding a balance between liberty and equality is essential for creating a just and prosperous society. This book is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of one of the most important debates in modern political philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
