In his Pragmatist Egalitarianism, David Rondel proposes a “pluralist egalitarianism” as a pragmatist resolution to longstanding debates over egalitarian justice. On Rondel’s view, egalitarianism has three distinct and irreducible variables. In this comment, I argue that pluralist views generally do not reconcile anything, but instead posit sites of normative conflict that are in principle invulnerable to remediation by human intelligence. I then propose that although Rondel might be correct to identify three distinct sites of egalitarian concern, there remains reason to prioritize what he calls the “institutional” variable.

坏的,错误的和不公正的:评龙德尔的实用主义平等主义
戴维·隆德尔(David Rondel)在他的实用主义平等主义中提出了“多元主义平均主义”,作为对长期关于平等正义的辩论的实用主义解决方案。在隆德尔看来,平均主义具有三个截然不同且不可还原的变量。在这篇评论中,我认为,多元主义的观点通常不会调和任何东西,而是在规范上冲突的场所,这些场所在原则上不受人类智慧的补救。然后,我提出,尽管隆德尔可能是正确的,可以确定出三个平等的关注点,但是仍然有理由优先考虑他所说的“制度性”变量。
