Presenting a systematic analysis of the concept of fairness as a moral notion, this book offers answers to these and related questions. Critically examining and rejecting several familiar accounts of fairness - fairness as equality of treatment, as not taking advantage of another, as adherence to rule, and as respect for others - the author proposes an alternative account of fairness as fidelity to social practice.
