About this event

It?s often said that there shouldn?t be any billionaires. But this is a mistake. What we need is a world without decamillionaires ? people having more than ten million pounds. That is what the philosopher Ingrid Robeyns from the University of Utrecht argues in her new book 'Limitarianism. The Case Against Extreme Wealth'.
