Description
The Case Against Extreme Wealth Ingrid Robeyns presents a provocative argument that fixing society isn't just about saving the poorest from destitution, but also about limiting the accumulation of wealth among the richest. This thought-provoking intervention exposes the true extent of our wealth problem, which has spiralled out of control over the past fifty years. Robeyns shows that extreme wealth is not only unjustifiable but also harmful to us all - including those who are rich. She offers a clear alternative: limitarianism, which proposes placing a hard limit on the wealth that any one person can accumulate. This idea has far-reaching implications for our current system and the opportunity for a better world. By exploring the moral, political, economic, social, environmental, and psychological dimensions of extreme wealth, Robeyns challenges readers to rethink their assumptions about wealth and its impact on society.
