Abstract
VARGAS DUQUE, Gabriel Eduardo. Is There a Conflict between Liberty and Equality?. Prax. filos. [online]. 2011, n.32, pp.163-173. ISSN 0120-4688.
This paper examines critically Ronald Dworkin's ideas about the apparent conflict between the political ideals of liberty and equality. Following a suggestion by Ruth Marcus, is argued that, contrary to Dworkin's idea, the acceptance of genuine valorative dilemmas don't imply an inconsistency in the agent's system of values.
Keywords : moral dilemmas; liberty; equality; Dworkin; Marcus.
