Order Instructions
Your Essay Assignment in this course is expected to address the following prompt:
The two chief values in modern political and economic thought are liberty and equality.
In general, one modern narrative places the value of individual liberty most highly, and
argues that individual liberty is best promoted through some form of private property,
and best protected through a government of limited and defined powers. The other
modern narrative places the value of equality most highly and argues that equality is best
promoted through the limitation or abolition of private property, and best established
through a government possessing extensive and centralized powers. But both modern
narratives recognize that liberty and equality will never be perfectly balanced; one value
will always be dominant over the other.
Write an essay in which you explain why either liberty or equality should be the dominant
value in modern politics. Do we better secure both values of liberty and equality by
prioritizing liberty, or by prioritizing equality? What dangers might we foresee if we
prioritize the wrong value?
Defend your response by drawing from our assigned primary and secondary sources, and
by evaluating these arguments in light of Christian scripture and teaching.
