 Within contemporary political philosophy, egalitarian liberalism seeks to present an alternative both to utilitarianism and to the two versions of libertarianism discussed above. Egalitarian liberals agree with libertarians that utilitarianism fails to take seriously the inviolability of the person. Unlike libertarians, however, egalitarian liberals do not think that respect for the inviolability of the person commits us to the principle of self-ownership (for more on this issue, see section  3.1.2  below). Consequently, they feel much less compunction in advocating tax-transfer schemes, which the libertarian finds objectionable, so as to secure a full social minimum. Indeed, they argue that justice demands that we do introduce such schemes. Let us take a look at one influential egalitarian liberal theory of justice, and its implications for the justifiability of enacting a social minimum (see also Dworkin 1985, 2000).
