""Hoy vivimos una verdadera contrarrevolución. Desde la década de 1980, en efecto, los más ricos no dejaron de incrementar su porción de los ingresos y los patrimonios, invirtiendo la anterior tendencia secular a la reducción de las brechas de riqueza. Los factores económicos y sociales que engendraron esta situación son bien conocidos. Pero el deterioro de la idea de igualdad también desempeñó un papel crucial, al conducir insidiosamente a deslegitimar el impuesto y las acciones de redistribución. Al mismo tiempo, la denuncia de desigualdades experimentadas como inaceptables linda hoy con una forma de resignación y un sentimiento de impotencia. Por consiguiente, no hay nada más urgente que refundar la idea de igualdad para salir de los atolladeros de nuestro tiempo. El libro contribuye a esta empresa de una doble manera. Al rehacer la historia de los dos siglos de debates y de luchas sobre la cuestión, en primer lugar ilumina de una manera inédita la situación actual. Luego, elabora una filosofía de la igualdad como relación social que permite ir más allá de las teorías de la justicia que, de John Rawls a Amartya Sen, dominaron hasta el momento la reflexión contemporánea. Y muestra que la reconstrucción de una sociedad fundada en los principios de singularidad, de reciprocidad y de comunalidad, es la condición de una solidaridad más activa." --Contratapa."@es
"Hauptbeschreibung In Demokratien der westlichen Gesellschaften lassen sich zunehmende soziale Unterschiede nicht mehr leugnen. Immer offensichtlicher werdende Einkommensunterschiede setzen das soziale Band bis zum Zerreißen unter Spannung. Eine Gefahr für die Demokratie? Pierre Rosanvallon entfaltet ein sowohl sozial- wie begriffsgeschichtliches Panorama, das die Geschichte der Gleichheitsvorstellungen vom späten 18. Jahrhundert bis in die Gegenwart darstellt, und verknüpft diese Ideengeschichte mit einer kritischen Analyse der aktuellen politischen Situation."
"Since the 1980s, society's wealthiest members have claimed an ever-expanding share of income and property. It has been a true counterrevolution, says Pierre Rosanvallon--the end of the age of growing equality launched by the American and French revolutions. And just as significant as the social and economic factors driving this contemporary inequality has been a loss of faith in the ideal of equality itself. An ambitious transatlantic history of the struggles that, for two centuries, put political and economic equality at their heart, The Society of Equals calls for a new philosophy of social relations to reenergize egalitarian politics. For eighteenth-century revolutionaries, equality meant understanding human beings as fundamentally alike and then creating universal political and economic rights. Rosanvallon sees the roots of today's crisis in the period 1830-1900, when industrialized capitalism threatened to quash these aspirations. By the early twentieth century, progressive forces had begun to rectify some imbalances of the Gilded Age, and the modern welfare state gradually emerged from Depression-era reforms. But new economic shocks in the 1970s began a slide toward inequality that has only gained momentum in the decades since. -- Publsiher website."
