Re: the Egalitarianism entry in the SEP
Missing from the bibliography: Christine Sypnowich, Equality Renewed: Justice, Flourishing and the Egalitarian Ideal (Routledge, 2017 [available in pbk.]). And while there is some excellent stuff from Nussbaum, I wish it would have included her Creating Capabilities: The Human Development Approach (Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2011). In addition, a nice volume edited by David B. Grusky and Ravi Kanbur, Poverty and Equality (Stanford University Press, 2006) would be a welcome addition (many of the essays are first rate, with contributions from Sen and Nussbaum). Oh, and one more thing: no Thomas Piketty?! For a few more possible contributions, see this list: https://www.academia.edu/36021894/Beyond_Inequality_Moral_and_Political_Economy_of_Welfare_Well_Being_and_Human_Flourishing_A_Reading_Guide_
