Abstract:
Explores rankism's social and psychological costs and envisions the creation of a "dignitarian" society that disallows the abuse of rank. This book argues that post-rankist thinking maintains that regardless of our rank, we are all equal when it comes to dignity. It sees the establishment of equal dignity as a stepping-stone to tolerant societies.
