No Time for Limitarianism? The Temporal Scope of Having Too Much
Limitarianism holds that it is bad or unjust if some people have too much. It has been the subject of much debate in the last few years. Yet one crucial question, so far not discussed, is the temporal scope of “having too much.” Should we think of limitarianism in terms of lifetimes—whereby extreme wealth refers to how much we have over our entire lives? Or should the principle be time-sliced—referring instead to how much we have at any given mom…
Ageing, equality, and community
Is the Gender Pension Gap Fair
The income gap between women and men expands with age, culminating in a gender pension gap in old age that is much larger than pay gaps earlier in life. In this article, I question two attempts to justify gender pension gaps. One insists that lower financial contribution justifies women's lower overall pensions. The second states that women must receive less monthly because they live longer. I argue that neither of these reasons is fair in a gend…
Working Retirees? A Liberal Case for Retirement as Free Time
Retirement is often viewed as a reward for a working life. While many have reason to want a work-free retirement, not everyone does. Should working retirees have to give up their retirement pension and, consequently, their status as retirees? The answer, I argue, boils down to whether we conceive of retirement as free time (need-free) or as leisure (work-free). In this article, I put forward a liberal case in favour of free time, despite whether …
Get old or die trying
Of all the risks we face in life, ranging from unemployment to old age, early death is among the most tragic and yet most neglected by modern states. Liberal egalitarians might find it easy to dismiss social insurance against early death, but I argue they should not. Early in this paper, I explain why social insurance should include the risk of premature death by replying to four common criticisms. What follows is a case for a novel form of insur…
Proportionality without Inequality
