- W4317369002 abstract "Extract In the ten years since this book first came out, much has changed and much has stayed the same. Increasingly sophisticated legal tools have emerged for addressing inequality; yet true equality remains elusive. Indeed, by paying more attention to inequalities, we are more aware of their scale. On the one hand, the legal landscape in the UK has been altered dramatically by the Equality Act 2010, which draws together the confusing plethora of anti-discrimination legislation which had grown piece-meal over the years. On the other hand, the social landscape is being ravaged by cuts to public services, making gains in the equality field appear increasingly fragile. Simultaneously, the legitimacy of human rights is being challenged in some political quarters. As in the first edition, this book aims to contribute to the search for equality, not by providing answers, but by articulating the questions. The second edition deepens and extends the use of comparative law, drawing particularly on equality law in the USA, Canada, South Africa, and India. European Union law is also of central importance, as is that of the European Convention on Human Rights. Similar questions are asked across all these jurisdictions, and there is increasing cross-pollination of legal concepts. Comparative law sharpens our understanding of our own jurisdiction, enriches the debate as to the purposes of equality law, and suggests alternative means of accomplishing stated aims. At the same time, comparative law carries with it important challenges: equality must always be understood within the specific legal, social, and political context of a particular jurisdiction. The aim is therefore to find a conception of equality which is both generalizable and context sensitive." @default.
