AB - This study aims to clarify the problem of meritocracy and to show a way to overcome it, which can be discovered in Wolfgang Huber’s legal ethics. In the meritocratic structure, where distribution by merit is important, the social background of the individual is disregarded. Therefore, substantive equality of opportunity is necessary to mitigate the effects of poor starting conditions. The law contributes to its realization. Huber explains the purpose and function of law and emphasizes the need for theological reflection. He further argues that education promotes the realization of substantive equality of opportunity. On this basis, the church must endeavor to implement the right to development. This legal-ethical effort contributes to overcoming the meritocracy problem and the development of society.
