The Center for Critical Democracy Studies (CCDS) cordially invites you to a book talk for:

Equality: Reflections on the History of an Elusive Idea by Professor Darrin M. McMahon (Dartmouth College and The Davis Center, Princeton University)

Equality is in crisis. Our world is filled with soaring inequalities, spanning wealth, race, identity, and nationality. Yet how can we strive for equality if we don鈥檛 understand it? As much as we have struggled for equality, we have always been profoundly skeptical about it. How much do we want, and for whom?

Darrin M. McMahon鈥檚 Equality is the definitive intellectual history, tracing equality鈥檚 global origins and spread from the dawn of humanity through the Enlightenment to today. Equality has been reimagined continually, in the great world religions and the politics of the ancient world, by revolutionaries and socialists, Nazis and fascists, and postwar reformers and activists.

Darrin M. McMahon is the David W. Little Class of 1944 Professor and Chair of the Department History at Dartmouth College. Educated at the University of California, Berkeley and Yale, where he received his PhD in 1998, he is the author or editor of eight books, including Enemies of the Enlightenment (Oxford); Happiness: A History (Atlantic); Divine Fury: A History of Genius (Basic), and most recently, History and Human Flourishing (ed.) and Equality: The History of an Elusive Idea (Basic). A frequent contributor to the national and international press, McMahon is also the editor of the University of Chicago book series, The Life of Ideas.
