Removing the Commons

A Lockean Left-Libertarian Approach to the Just Use and Appropriation of Natural Resources

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Removing the Commons defends a Lockean Left-Libertarian account of the moral conditions in which people may remove, either via use or appropriation, natural resources from the commons. I conclude that self-owning agents may remove natural resources from the commons just so long as they leave others the competitive value of their removal in a way that best affords others an equal opportunity for welfare.
