Two Paths to Luck Equalitarianism:G.A.Cohen's Critique,Inheritance and Transcendence of Dworkin
Cohen and Dworkin belong to the same school of luck egualitarianism,but their view to the problem of luck are funda-mentally different.Cohen argues for the elimination of the contingent element of choice luck in terms of distributive justice outcomes,and he argues that people should not be held responsible for consequences that are not due to their own faults;Dworkin argues for the legitimacy of unequal outcomes in terms of an ethical and moral approach that combines choice luck with personal responsibility,and he argues that people should be held responsible for the outcomes of choices based on their free will.Although,Cohen and Dworkin had different aims,the basic propositions and content of Cohen's theory of equalitarianism of luck were deeply influenced by Dworkin.It was also under Dworkin's inspiration that Cohen gradually developed his own unique theory of luck equalitarianism and surpassed Dworkin.
