Equality of treatment
Encyclopedia : E : EQ : EQU : Equality of treatment
The context of Equality of Treatment is usually in interpersonal relations, especially in the relation of the individual to an organization (usually government). All persons are treated the same by the person or organization of interest.
No person is treated differently than any other person. Impartiality and fairness are both accepted by all parties, because preference is neither given to or taken from any person. When every person receives the same treatment, discrimination is impossible and justice prevails. Blind equality is a form of systematically instilling equality of treatment in a system. Blind equality is a often a feature of democracy.
