The Policy of Preference
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"When racial and sexual injustice have been reduced, we shall still be left with the great injustice of the smart and the dumb, who are so differently rewarded for comparable effort. […] Perhaps someone will discover a way to reduce the socially produced inequalities (especially the economic ones) between the intelligent and the unintelligent, the talented and the untalented, or even the beautiful and the ugly."--"The Policy of Preference" by Thomas Nagel in Mortal Questions (1979) by Thomas Nagel |
