在1979年的坦纳演讲中，他提出了”什么是平等？Amartya Sen问平等主义者应该用什么度量来确定他们的理想在特定社会中实现的程度。对于平等主义者来说，一个人的状况的哪些方面应该以一种基本的方式来计算，而不仅仅是作为他们认为是基本的东西的原因或证据或代理？在这项研究中，我检查了这个问题的答案，并在最近的哲学文献中对这个问题进行了讨论。我理所当然地认为，正义要求人们拥有同等数量的东西，不是不管什么，而是在与分配平等相竞争的价值观所允许的范围内;我研究了一些赞同平等主义观点的作者所说的人们应该更加平等的方面，当走向更大平等的其他价值观的代价并非不可容忍时。
In his Tanner Lecture of 1979 called" Equality of What?" Amartya Sen asked what metric egalitarians should use to establish the extent to which their ideal is realized in a given society. What aspect (s) of a person's condition should count in a fundamental way for egalitarians, and not merely as cause of or evidence of or proxy for what they regard as fundamental?In this study I examine answers to that question, and discussions bearing on that question, in recent philosophical literature. I take for granted that there is something which justice requires people to have equal amounts of, not no matter what, but to whatever extent is allowed by values which compete with distributive equality; and I study what a number of authors who share that egalitarian view have said about the dimensions) or respect (s) in which people should be made more equal, when the price in other values of moving toward greater equality is not intolerable.
