Isi artikel

In chapter 2 of Sovereign Virtue, Dworkin proposes the hypothetical insurance market as the most promising way of explaining what equality of resources requires, in the face of unequal talents. Roughly, this analytical device imagines that people take insurance coverage for lack of income-earning talent, assuming that everyone has the same risk of ending up anywhere, high or low, within the market reward structure of a society that equally distributes external resources. Levels of insurance coverage are offered on the understanding that policyholders pay premiums out of their future earnings, and that premiums must be sufficient to sustain insurance payouts at each level of coverage. Under these equal conditions, the insurance choices made by the community define the inequalities of earning power that equality of resources would permit. These choices are to be implemented as accurately as possible, through programs of tax and transfer.
