SUMMARY:Ingrid Robeyns - Limitarianism: The Case Against Extreme Wealth
LOCATION:The Social Hub Amsterdam City
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 32% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nHow much money is too much? Is it ethical\, and democrati
 c\, for an individual to amass a limitless amount of wealth\, and then spe
 nd it however they choose? As democracies weaken\, our climate becomes inc
 reasingly unpredictable\, and inequality worsens\, many of us feel that th
 e obvious answer is no – but what can we do about it?\nEconomist and philo
 sopher Ingrid Robeyns has long written and argued for the principle she ca
 lls "limitarianism" – a “common sense” (Jia Tolentino) case against extrem
 e wealth which posits that a considered cap on one’s individual wealth is 
 an urgent ethnical concern that will ultimately lead to healthier\, more d
 emocratic societies. In this “provocative consideration of extreme wealth 
 accumulation” (The New Yorker) Robeyns ignites an urgent debate about weal
 th and when\, how and why to limit it\, calling into question the legitima
 cy of capitalism and neoliberalism and inviting us to a radical reimaginin
 g of our world.\n\nAbout the author:\nIngrid Robeyns holds master degrees 
 in economics and philosophy\, and obtained her PhD for a thesis on gender 
 inequality and the capability approach at Cambridge University. She curren
 tly holds the chair in ethics of institutions at Utrecht University. In 20
 18\, she was elected as a member of the Netherlands Royal Academy of Scien
 ces and Arts. In 2021\, she was awarded an Emma Goldman Award for her work
  on inequality studies and feminism by the FLAX foundation in Vienna. She 
 lives in Utrecht\, Netherlands.
