About this book
Jesse Frderik and Rutger Bregman have written the Essay of the Month for Philosophy Month 2015. How is it possible that the people we clearly cannot do without – refuse collectors, police officers, nurses – earn so little, whilst unimportant, superfluous or even harmful bankers, lobbyists and consultants fare much better? This is the question with which Rutger Bregman and Jesse Frederik break the deadlock in the debate on inequality. Drawing on ancient and modern thinkers, from Aristotle to Piketty, they show that there is nothing self-evident about the distribution of income and wealth. Convinced that economists know too little about philosophy, and philosophers too little about economics, they take the discussion to a higher level. It is high time to ask that age-old question once again: what wealth is truly deserved?
