Introduction -- Chapter 2: The Problem Of Property -- Chapter 3: Lockean Property Theory: A Menu Of Options For The Justification Of Unilateral Appropriation -- Chapter 4: Lockean Appropriation Assessed -- Chapter 5: Right-Libertarian Appropriation Assessed -- Chapter 6: The Approximation Of A Property Rights Accord -- Chapter 7: Conclusion: The Greater Of Two Goods.This book is Karl Widerquist’s first statement of the “indepentarian” theory of property, called, “Justice as the Pursuit of Accord” (JPA). It argues the natural-rights-based arguments for unequal private property have failed to establish that institution as right. It is a legal privilege, inconsistent with the maximum equal freedom from interference. The book discusses how to establish and maintain a property system that best promotes freedom from interference. Paying taxes and obeying regulations is part of the purchase price of the right to control, use, or use-up any good made partly out of natural resources (i.e. all goods), because doing so interferes with people who control, use, or use-up fewer natural resources. A sufficient portion of that tax revenue has to be redistributed in the form of a Universal Basic Income to ensure the property system is in the interest of everyone. Karl Widerquist is a Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University-Qatar. He specializes in distributive justice—the ethics of who has what. He has published ten books and dozens of articles in fields as diverse as economics, philosophy, politics, and anthropology.Exploring the Basic Income Guarantee,2662-3811Finance, PublicEconomic policyLabor economicsSocial sciencesPhilosophyPublic EconomicsEconomic PolicyLabor EconomicsSocial PhilosophyFinance, Public.Economic policy.Labor economics.Social sciencesPhilosophy.Public Economics.Economic Policy.Labor Economics.Social Philosophy.330331.236Widerquist Karl974515MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910637711203321The Problem of Property3003036UNINA
