Sufficiency as a Demand of Justice

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A systematic clarification and defence of Sufficientarianism - ''having enough'' - as a demand of justice

Liam Shields systematically clarifies and defends the political philosophy of Sufficientarianism, which insists that securing enough of some things, such as food, healthcare and education, is a crucial demand of justice. By engaging in practical debates about critical issues such as child-rearing and global justice, the author sheds light on the potential implications of suffientarianism on the social policies that affect our daily lives.

Key Features

• The first book-length treatment of sufficiency as a demand of justice
• Critically discusses the relative merits of sufficiency compared to equality or priority
• Makes a new contribution to debates in political theory about autonomy and upbringing from a sufficientarian perspective
