Libertarians and Liberal Welfarists' Conception of Distributive Justice

Summary/Abstract: In this paper I argue for the position that the cannons of distributive justice as proposed by the Liberal Welfarists and Libertarians are structurally deficient in that they suggest a false dichotomy between two ways of ensuring the justice of the distributive system leading to a greater exercise of the freedom of the people. Liberty and Equality are not necessarily mutually exclusive nor are they individually exhaustive and sufficient. Authentic freedom is ultimately a combination of the values and essential element of liberty and equality.
