多选题One of the principal themes of Walzer's critique of liberal capitalism
is that it is insufficiently egalitarian. Walzer's case against the economic
inequality generated by capitalism and in favor of "a radical redistribution of
wealth" is presented in a widely cited essay entitled "In Defense of
Equality". The most striking feature of Walzer's critique is
that, far from rejecting the principle of reward according to merit, Walzer
insists on its validity. People who excel should receive the superior benefits
appropriate to their excellence. But people exhibit {{U}}a great variety of
qualities—"intelligence, physical strength, agility and grace, artistic
creativity, mechanical skill, leadership, endurance, memory, psychological
insight, the capacity for hard work—even moral strength, sensitivity, the
ability to express compassion."{{/U}} Each deserves its proper recompense, and
hence a proper distribution of material goods should reflect human differences
as measured on all these different scales. Yet, under capitalism, the ability to
make money ("the green thumb of bourgeois society") enables its possessor to
acquire almost "every other sort of social good", such as the respect and esteem
of others. The author implies that Walzer's interpretation of
the principle of reward according to merit is distinctive for its
A. insistence on maximizing everyone's rewards.
B. emphasis on equality.
C. proven validity.
D. broad conception of what constitutes merit.
E. broad conception of what constitutes a reward.
