德沃金的自由主义平等理论研究

A Study of Liberal Theory of Equality by Dworkin

自由主义平等理论是在坚持自由主义基本原则的基础上偏重平等的考量。德沃金是继罗尔斯之后的主要代表人物,其平等理论的核心是"每个人都有作为平等的人受到对待的权利"。为确保平等对待的实现,德沃金设计的自由主义平等的制度框架是:正义的制度=市场机制+代议民主制+个人权利。德沃金的理论是为福利国家辩护的理论。德沃金和罗尔斯一样,要在形式平等向实质平等理论演进中留下自己的贡献。

The liberal theory of equality lays particular stress on＂equality＂on the basis of insisting on the principle of Liberalism.After Rawls,Dworkin is the leading representative of such theory.The core idea is that＂As an equal entity,every individual has the rights to be treated equally＂.For realizing the idea,Dworkin designs a framework of Liberalism Equality：Just System = Market Mechanism ＋ Representative Democracy ＋ Individual＇s Rights.Dwokin＇s theory holds the position on behalf of welfare states.Like Rawls,Dworkin intends to leave his contribution in the process of theoretical evolution＂from formal equality to essential equality＂.
