Description: "Are inequalities of income created by the free market just? In this book Serena Olsaretti examines two main arguments that justify those inequalities: the first claims that they are just because they are deserved, and the second claims that they are just because they are what free individuals are entitled to. Her book will be of interest to a wide range of readers in political philosophy, political theory and normative economics."--BOOK JACKET.
