Does Economic Limitarianism Provide a Solution to the Climate Crisis?
(Title)
Abstract
This paper analyses the potential for economic limitarianism to be used as a means to address the current climate crisis. In discussing economic limitarianism, the paper references the concept Ingrid Robeyns proposed in a 2017 piece in order to tackle imbalances in political influence, as well as being an attempt to find the resources necessary to meet urgent unmet needs, of which climate change is one specific case, by limiting the amount of income and wealth that anyone can hold. This paper identifies the main reasons for climate change as being a result of that wealth, examining the role the wealthy play through both their direct consumption impact as well as their political influence that prevents solutions to the climate crisis from being imposed. In doing so, it is possible to identify how economic limitarianism can be directly employed as means to address the climate crisis through an effective and sustainable reduction in wealth.
