Abstract
UDI, Juliana. Igualdad de oportunidades y autonomía familiar. Anal. filos. [online]. 2007, vol.27, n.2, pp.165-186. ISSN 1851-9636.
This essay analyzes the problem of the normative incompatibility between two principles which are widely accepted by liberals -the principle of equality of opportunities and that of family autonomy- and this within the framework of Rawls´s theory of justice. After specifying different ways in which the autonomy of the family necessarily leads to inequality of opportunities between individuals, I examine two different solutions suggested by Rawls in A Theory of Justice and I intend to demonstrate why they are wrong.
Keywords : Rawls; Equality of opportunities; Autonomy of the family; Egalitarian liberalism.
