Limitarianism by Ingrid Robeyns
Rethinking Justice, Equality, and the Good Life
"Limitarianism" by Ingrid Robeyns delves into the concept of setting an upper limit on personal wealth accumulation. The book argues that extreme wealth is not only unjustifiable but also detrimental to society as a whole, including the wealthy. Robeyns explores the moral, political, economic, social, environmental, and psychological impacts of unchecked wealth accumulation. She proposes limitarianism as a solution to the challenges posed by neoliberal capitalism, advocating for a system where wealth is capped to foster a more equitable and sustainable world.
