A founding principle of various forms of [[democracy]], political egalitarianism was an idea which was supported by Thomas Jefferson and it is a concept similar to moral reciprocity and legal equality. The idea suggests all citizens of a certain country must be treated equally solely depending on their citizenship status, not on their race, religion and how clever or how rich they are. Equal citizenship constitutes the core of political [[egalitarianism]]. This is expressed in such principles as one-person/one-vote, equality before the law, and equal rights of free speech. > > Equality and democracy are closely linked with each other. > **See**:: [[equity]] ##### ^dataviews > [!dataview]+ Related unlinked notes > > - [[In what way are human's equal]] > - [[We need equity of access not equality of opportunity]] > - [[What does equality even mean]] > [!dataview]- Other unlinked mentions > > - [[topics]] > - [[Foraging was a very sustainable lifestyle]] > - [[How do we effect change in society]]
