This volume collects previously unpublished work on distributive justice written by leading political philosophers. Its aim is to provide a wide-ranging overview of the central contemporary debates—some more familiar than others—concerning distributive justice. The volume opens with an introduction and its thirty-two chapters are divided into four parts. The chapters of Part I introduce readers to the main contemporary approaches to distributive justice; those of Part II discuss the relation between distributive justice and some other social virtues; and those of Part III address some central foundational issues that affect our thinking about justice. Finally, the chapters of Part IV examine the implications of distributive justice for some key aspects of social life.

'Tener demasiado' es el primer volumen acade´mico dedicado al limitarismo: la idea de que el uso de los recursos econo´micos o de los ecosistemas no sobrepasen ciertos li´mites. Se trata de un concepto profundamente arraigado en el pensamiento econo´mico y poli´tico, por lo que es posible encontrar premisas similares en pensadores como Plato´n, Aquino o Spinoza. No obstante, 'Tener demasiado' es el primer ejemplar en el campo de la filosofi´a poli´tica contempora´nea en el que el limitarismo se explora en profundidad y con detalle. Asimismo, este estudio reu´ne por primera vez los mejores escritos de los principales teo´ricos del limitarismo, lo que le convierte en una contribucio´n esencial al campo de la filosofi´a poli´tica, en general, y de las teori´as sobre la justicia distributiva, en particular. Incluye tanto arti´culos seminales ya publicados como nuevos capi´tulos y se presenta como lectura indispensable para acade´micos y estudiantes de teori´a poli´tica y filosofi´a, asi´ como para todos aquellos interesados en cuestiones relacionadas con la justicia distributiva.

This book, based on Patricia F. Zauchner's dissertation, explores the concept of rank reversing in the context of distributive justice and need-based distribution procedures. Conducted at the University of Bremen, the research examines the principles of equality, need, and desert in social comparisons and their role in distributive justice evaluations. The work is grounded in experimental studies, particularly focusing on the stability of need-based procedures across borders. The author's intention is to enhance the understanding and acceptance of rank reversing within distributive justice, providing insights into factors influencing social comparisons and the impact on wealth and social status. The audience for this work includes academics and researchers in social sciences, particularly those interested in decision theory, distributive justice, and experimental research methodologies.

"Place-based strategies are widely discussed as powerful instruments of economic and community development. In terms of European debate, the local level - cities, towns, neighbourhoods - has recently come under increased scrutiny as a potentially decisive actor in Cohesion Policy. As understandings of socio-spatial and economic cohesion evolve, the idea that spatial justice requires a concerted policy response has gained currency. Given the political, social and economic salience of locale, this book explores the potential contribution of place-based initiative to more balanced and equitable socio-economic development, as well as growth in a more general sense. The overall architecture of the book and the individual chapters address place-based perspectives from a number of vantage points, including the potential of achieving greater effectiveness in EU and national level development policies, through a greater local level and citizens role and concrete actions for achieving this; enhancing decision-making autonomy by pooling local capacities for action; linking relative local autonomy to development outcomes and viewing spatial justice as a concept and policy goal. The book highlights, though the use of case studies, how practicable and actionable knowledge can be gained from local development experiences. This book targets researchers, practitioners and students who seek to learn more about place-based based development and its potentials. Its cross-cutting focus on spatial justice and place will ensure the book is of wider international interest"--
