Egalitarianism. This concept in political philosophy, which for centuries, has been the epicenter of political and social debates between intellectuals, but also between ordinary people. Equality between men has always been the perpetual quest of the collective. Not that of the individual. The fight for equality is always rooted in morality. Egalitarianism in itself has no economic, political or social foundation; but strictly and purely a moral one. A society that makes egalitarianism its highest and ultimate purpose has resulted in more inequality. The purpose of this book is to explain why the quest for equality does not serve society on a long-term basis, but on the contrary; widens the inequalities that already exist between men.
