    À propos vækstmani:

    > »I sin nye bog “Limitarianism – The Case Against Extreme Wealth” argumenterer den hollandske professor Ingrid Robeyns for, at vor tids største problem er, at nogen har for mange penge, og løsningen er at begrænse retten til, hvor stor ens private formue må være.«

  6. One of the most successful parts of the Powell strategy has been the reframing of "liberty". From it's original meaning; freedom from tyranny, to the freedom to be a tyrant (eg ZuckerBorg, Bezos, Thiel, Musk etc). Buying into this framing...

    "Limitarianism v Libertarianism"

    ... implies we can only have economic justice at the cost of political freedom (a la China). I call bollox on this.

  7. 📢#OutNow in #OA: 'Having Too Much: #Philosophical Essays on #Limitarianism' by Ingrid Robeyns (ed.).

    'Having Too Much' is the first academic volume devoted to #limitarianism: the idea that using #economic or #ecosystem resources should not exceed certain limits. This concept has deep roots in #economic and #political thought.

    One can find similar statements of such limits in thinkers such as #Plato, #Aquinas, and #Spinoza. But this book is the first time in contemporary #political #philosophy that #limitarianism is explored at length and in detail.

    Including some of the key published articles as well as new chapters, 'Having Too Much' is necessary reading for scholars and students of #politicaltheory and #philosophy, as well as anyone interested in questions of #distributivejustice.
