  • Overview

    Una historia fascinante sobre la idea de igualdad y su evolución a lo largo de los siglos, desde sus raíces en la Antigüedad hasta la crisis que enfrentamos en el presente.

    En nuestro mundo proliferan las desigualdades, inmensas y de muy diversos tipos (económicas, raciales, identitarias, nacionales...). Pero ¿cómo podemos remediarlas si no acabamos de entender lo que significa la igualdad? Hemos luchado mucho por ella a lo largo de los siglos, pero también ha sido un horizonte que hemos contemplado siempre con altas dosis de escepticismo.

    Igualdad es la historia intelectual definitiva de este concepto, en la que Darrin M. McMahon rastrea sus orígenes y su definición a escala global, desde los albores de la humanidad hasta la actualidad, pasando por periodos tan trascendentales como el de la Ilustración. Pues cada época, cada doctrina —desde las religiones mundiales más importantes hasta la política, incluida la del mundo antiguo— y cada personaje —revolucionarios modernos, socialistas, nazis, fascistas y reformadores y activistas de la posguerra— le ha atribuido su propia acepción.

    McMahon no solo nos ofrece un magistral estudio de por qué la igualdad importa y por qué no dejamos de reformularla una y otra vez, sino que también nos brinda las herramientas que precisamos para llevar a cabo ese mismo ejercicio e idear la igualdad para nuestra propia era y nuestro momento.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    A fascinating history of the idea of equality and its evolution across the centuries, from its roots in Antiquity to the crisis we face today.

    Inequalities proliferate in our world, immense and of many different kinds—economic, racial, identity-based, national. But how can we remedy them if we do not fully understand what equality means? We have fought for it throughout history, yet it has always been a horizon viewed with skepticism.

    Equality is the definitive intellectual history of this concept, in which Darrin M. McMahon traces its origins and definitions on a global scale, from the dawn of humanity to the present, including pivotal periods such as the Enlightenment. Each era, each doctrine—from the world’s major religions to politics, including the ancient world—and each figure—modern revolutionaries, socialists, Nazis, fascists, postwar reformers and activists—has given it its own meaning.

    McMahon not only offers a masterful study of why equality matters and why we keep reformulating it again and again, but also provides us with the tools we need to undertake that same exercise and imagine equality for our own age and moment.
