Abstract
Egalitarian and justice theorists are frequently occupied with developing mechanisms and institutions to bring about equality in a society of citizens. However, discussions of children as future citizens rarely appear in the more prominent literature. This paper represents an effort to contribute to the small yet important area of political theory that recognizes the challenges posed by children as incomplete members of society. In particular, my goal is to determine whether egalitarianism can be applied or modified to apply to children as future citizens.
