Paperback. Condition: New. *A NEW YORKER, ESQUIRE, HISTORY TODAY AND THE CONVERSATION BOOK OF THE YEAR*'The best case I've read for putting an upper limit on the accumulation of wealth' Richard Wilkinson'One of the most talked-about books to the moment . Limitarianism floats the heretical idea that fixing society isn't just about saving the poorest from destitution, but about putting a cap on how much the richest are able to own' SpectatorNo-one deserves to be a millionaire. Not even you. We all notice when the poor get poorer: when there are more rough sleepers and food bank queues start to grow. But if the rich become richer, there is nothing much to see in public and, for most of us, daily life doesn't change. Or at least, not immediately.In this astonishing, eye-opening intervention, world-leading philosopher and economist Ingrid Robeyns exposes the true extent of our wealth problem, which has spent the past fifty years silently spiralling out of control. In moral, political, economic, social, environmental and psychological terms, she shows, extreme wealth is not only unjustifiable but harmful to us all - the rich included.In place of our current system, Robeyns offers a breathtakingly clear alternative: limitarianism. The answer to so many of the problems posed by neoliberal capitalism - and the opportunity for a vastly better world - lies in placing a hard limit on the wealth that any one person can accumulate. Because nobody deserves to be a millionaire. Not even you.*Shortlisted for the Socrates Philosophy Prize*.

A New Yorker Best Book of 2024 A History Today Book of the Year"A powerful case for limitarianismthe idea that we should set a maximum on how much resources one individual can appropriate. A must-read!" Thomas Piketty, bestselling author of Capital in the Twenty-First CenturyAn original and galvanizing indictment of the worlds uber-rich that boldly argues for a cap on wealth from the philosopher who coined the term "limitarianism."How much money is too much? Is it ethical, and democratic, for an individual to amass a limitless amount of wealth, and then spend it however they choose? As democracies weaken, our climate becomes increasingly unpredictable, and inequality worsens, many of us feel that the obvious answer is nobut what can we do about it? Economist and philosopher Ingrid Robeyns has long written and argued for the principle she calls "limitarianism"a common sense (Jia Tolentino) case against extreme wealth which posits that a considered cap on ones individual wealth is an urgent ethnical concern that will ultimately lead to healthier, more democratic societies. In this provocative consideration of extreme wealth accumulation (The New Yorker) Robeyns ignites an urgent debate about wealth and when, how and why to limit it, calling into question the legitimacy of capitalism and neoliberalism and inviting us to a radical reimagining of our world.
