Equal Opportunities

This book examines the theoretical basis for competing approaches to equality of opportunity in the context of claims relating to sex, race and disability. It draws on and contributes directly to contemporary debates about social justice and opportunity, the role and responsibility of the state, and the efficacy of implementation. Furthermore, it makes focussed proposals in contested areas of policy, such as positive discrimination, positive action and the use of quotas and targets.Forbes is the author of 'Equal Opportunities' with ISBN 9781855674943 and ISBN 1855674947.
