How should we allocate positions of power in todayâs corporate sector?
How should we allocate positions of power in todayâs corporate sector? Aristotle argued that âthe best flutes should be given to the best flute playersâ. Such thinking might lead us to reject the EUâs recent draft Directive calling for all listed companies to give at least 40% of their board memberships to women. Certainly, the proposal has been met with fierce opposition from the UK government on the grounds of efficiency as well as justice. Drawing on various perspectives from the field of political theory, Dr Jude Browne considers the debate on corporate quotas.
