In the past twenty years, social injustice has increased
enormously in Britain and the United States, regardless of the
party in power. At the same time, the idea of social justice itself
has been subverted, as the mantras of personal responsibility
and equal opportunity have been employed as an excuse for
doing nothing about the enrichment of the few at the expense
of the many and for making ever harsher demands on the poor
and vulnerable. With grace and wit, Brian Barry exposes the
shoddy logic and distortion of reality that underpins this
ideology. Once we understand the role of the social structure
in limiting options, we have to recognize that really putting into
practice ideas such as equal opportunity and personal
responsibility would require a fundamental transformation of
almost all existing institutions.
Barry argues that only if inequalities of wealth and income are
kept within a narrow range can equal prospects for education,
health and autonomy be realized. He proposes a number of
policies to achieve a more equal society and argues that they
are economically feasible. But are they politically possible? The
apparent stability of the status quo is delusory, he responds:
radical changes in our way of life are unavoidable. Whether
these changes are for better or for worse depends partly on the
availability of a coherent set of principles and a programme
flowing from them that is capable of mobilizing the growing
discontent with business as usual .
That is, ultimately, why social justice matters.
