Why did the court distinguish between political and social equality?
The courts and the law are meant to secure political equality, or equality under the law. The law guarantees that every individual is given the same basic rights. The law, however, is not responsible for creating social equality. If an individual is considered "second class" through social, non-government means, the law cannot hold that individual on a pedestal. An example being that a poor individual is less likely to receive a loan than an individual with an income. The courts are not going to force the bank to give a poor individual a loan.
What do you understand by right to equality?
It seems to me that there are two types of "equality." There is institutional equality which concerns itself with how an individual is treated by governmental or other institutions and there's individual, or personal, equality, which has to do with how one is treated by other individuals within a society. Most modern (enlightened?) societies today incorporate the concept of equality in their laws to ensure that the individual is treated the same, and has the same opportunities, as all other individual members of the society. Personal equality has more to do with the perceptions of other members of the society about the individual. Sometimes, these perceptions are preconceived and based not on the actions of the particular individual, but on the perceptions of other individuals within similar groups. Often these perceptions are based on the actions of the behavior of the individual in question. We all have a "right" to governmental or institutional equality, but sometimes personal equality must be earned. If you dress like a skank, and hang out with a rough crowd, you could be the nicest and most responsible gal in high school, but you may have a hard time getting that job as a baby sitter with the neighbors down the street.
