A Theory of Citizen Equality: A Framework for Democratic Citizenship advances a theory of citizen equality that provides a roadmap for leveling the playing field. Citizen Equality Model is a broad theoretical approach for establishing justice and equality in a political environment. The theory prioritizes economic, political, religious, and social domains. There are ten total domains with the other six being biological, physiological, psychological, legal, educational, and leisure. If these domains are optimized, then a person has a chance for equality and the benefits of social and economic advantages. It also lists and prescribes thirteen limitations on equality. The theory approaches equality from the viewpoint of citizen as a whole person. In this sense, a citizen is met at their status and assessed to determine requirements for elevation to full equality. The goal is to place citizens in the best position to maximize their ability to attain equality.
Industry Reviews

"Dr. Minor provocatively argues that neither justice nor peace are attainable without equality. Through the construction of a Citizen Equality Model, he challenges readers to think about the meaning of equality across political, social, cultural, legal, and religious spaces and, more significantly, challenges readers to correct for past injustices in the United States while paving the way for a future in which the pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness are not empty words. This is an important book that can help us, collectively, answer the question: what does it mean to be a citizen in the United States today."

--Thomas A. Bryer, University of Central Florida
