Daniel Halliday

Inheritance of Wealth

Justice, Equality, and the Right to Bequeath

• Gebundenes Buch

Daniel Halliday examines the morality of the right to bequeath or transfer wealth, and argues that inheritance is unjust to the extent that it enhances the intergenerational replication of inequality, concentrating opportunities in certain groups. He presents an egalitarian case for imposition of a significant inheritance tax.
