Inheritance of Wealth: Justice, Equality, and the Right to Bequeath
Oxford University Press (2018)
Abstract
Daniel Halliday examines the morality of the right to bequeath or transfer wealth, and argues that inheritance is unjust to the extent that it enhances the intergenerational replication of inequality, concentrating opportunities in certain groups. He presents an egalitarian case for imposition of a significant inheritance tax.Author's Profile
