Reviews
Fairness, Responsibility, and Welfare offers various important insights into the seemingly complex topic of distrbutive implications of holding people partly responsible for their achievements...the content of the book is easily attainable for a broader audience...it will be one of the more important references for both economists and philosophers working in the field of distributive justice. Lars Schwettmann Journal of Social Choice and Welfare
Fairness, Responsibility, and Welfare offers various important insights into the seemingly complex topic of distrbutive implications of holding people partly responsible for their achievements...the content of the book is easily attainable for a broader audience...it will be one of the more important references for both economists and philosophers working in the field of distributive justice. Lars Schwettmann Journal of Social Choice and Welfare Inquiries such as Fleurbaey's, which employ both formal and philosophical methods to explore distributional principles, are of great importance from all three perspectives. Fairness, Responsibility, and Welfare is essential reading for serious egalitarians. Daniel M. Hausman, Ethics Fleurbaey's monograph is a paradigmatic masterpiece for the fruitful combination of philosophy and the axiomatic method in an area of highest interest for the social sciences.
