Ever since the French revolution the issues of equality and egalitarianism have had enormous significance for modern democracies. These topics are also particularly important in Australian life. Indeed, Australia is often described as an 'egalitarian society'. Clarifying contemporary accounts of egalitarianism and developing our own original account will be of major national significance. In addition, this project will focus on the important areas of health and unemployment, with specific consideration given to the role of individual responsibility in determining eligibility for unemployment and health benefits. The project will also help maintain Australia's place as a leader in the areas of political and social philosophy.

自法国大革命以来，平等和平均主义问题对现代民主国家具有重大意义。这些话题在澳大利亚人的生活中也特别重要。事实上，澳大利亚经常被描述为一个“平等主义社会”。澄清当代对平均主义的解释，发展我们自己的原创性解释，将具有重大的国家意义。此外，本项目将着重保健和失业等重要领域，特别考虑到个人责任在确定领取失业和保健福利资格方面的作用。该项目还将有助于保持澳大利亚在政治和社会哲学领域的领导地位。
