Question

What is equality and discuss the relation between liberty and equality?

Answer 1

Social equality is a state of affairs in which all people within a specific society or isolated group have the same status in certain respects, including civil rights, freedom of speech, property rights and equal access to certain social goods and services.

There is an intimate connection between the two “because all individual liberties are related to the basic equality of all men and because historically the aspiration for liberty became in practice and destruction of privilege or inequality”. Both are complementary to each other.
