Justice, Incentives, and Constructivism

反对经济不平等的最具影响力的论点之一，往往得到政治光谱左翼和右翼的支持，声称不平等是值得付出的代价，以保持对有效利用和发展人类生产潜力的激励。我的项目从当代政治哲学的角度考察了这类论点，并在此过程中提出了一个问题，即分配正义的原则是否应该扩展到我们的日常经济活动中，而不仅仅是适用于我们的公共机构。

One of the most influential arguments foe economic inequalities, often endorsed on the left as well as on the right of the political spectrum, claims inequality is a price worth paying to maintain incentives for the efficient use and development of human productive potential. My project examines this type of argument from the perspective of contemporary political philosophy, and in so doing asks whether principles of distributed justice should extend to our everyday economic activity rather then apply only to our public institutions.
