A friend of mine will be conducting a philosophy cafe on the following topic. He would appreciate it, if I can provide him with some readings written from a Marxist perspective that would pertain to the topic. Does anybody have any suggestions? Jim F. ------------------- “Outcomes and Opportunities: What Justifies Inequality?: Growing social and economic inequality is a recent fact of life in America. We can explain the increasingly skewed distribution of wealth and opportunity as the result of impersonal forces such as globalization and technology, as well as deliberate policies on taxes and compensation. But how do we justify these inequalities? Are there moral or practical justifications for a society of haves and have nots, and if not, what would count as a fair distribution of resources?"
