    Key Terms

    Egalitarian(as used in political philosophy)
    Based on the belief that all people deserve equal treatment and should have fair access to the same opportunities and resources.
    FEO (Fair Equality of Opportunity)(as used in political philosophy and justice theory)
    A principle saying that people should have equal chances to succeed based on their talents and efforts, not on things like race, gender, or wealth. It's a theory about what makes a society fair.
    Outcome-sensitive redistribution(as used in political philosophy and economics)
    Redistributing money, resources, or opportunities based on *what actually happens* to different people—for example, taking from the rich and giving to the poor to make sure everyone ends up in a similar situation.
    Smuggles in(argumentation and logic)
    Introduces something quietly or without acknowledgment, making it seem innocent when it's actually a controversial addition.

    continuity requirement(Proposed addition to FEO to resolve indeterminacy)
    A supplementary principle holding that if two individuals' capacities to develop skills through schooling are sufficiently similar, the developed skills they acquire and their resulting competitive success should not be too dissimilar
    procedural fairness(Health resource allocation policy)
    Principles governing allocation that pre-empt special-pleading and other exceptions, treated here as coincident with principles of rationality.
