Abstract
Relational egalitarianism is concerned with the ways in which we relate
to one another as equals and the social practices and structures that
undermine this mode of social interaction. It is concerned with the form
of the relationships we engage in, voluntarily or not, with other agents
or social actors. The literature on relational equality is now quite vast,
but most of it addresses two central questions (Fourie, Schuppert, and
Walliman-Helmer 2015, 10). The first concerns the distinction between
relational equality and other conceptions of equality—mostly luck and
distributive egalitarianism—and connected concepts. The second has to
do with the nature of relational equality—that is, what makes certain
ways of relating to one another egalitarian or inegalitarian and why relational egalitarianism is a form of egalitarianism
