La meritocracia como ideal de buena sociedad comporta un dilema: es insoslayable y a la vez insuficiente. Pese a su irrenunciable núcleo normativo –anclado en la arquitectura cognitivo-emocional del humán, decatanda evolucionariamente–, ha sido un factor de diferenciación ideológica entre izquierda y derecha. La izquierda anticapitalista la ha obviado (Marx) o la ha combatido (Cohen), mientras que la izquierda igualitarista liberal (Rawls) ha encontrado un mejor equilibrio reflexivo, integrando las dos emociones meritocráticas de la indignación y la compasión. Sin embargo, Sandel, detectando los problemas de una meritocracia tóxica ligada a la extrema desigualdad, propone su “superación” a través de la justicia contributiva y una política del bien común, alternativa no exenta de problemas.
