Martin O'Neill: Limiting Markets: Socialisation, Decommodification, and the Sense of Justice

Venue: Institutet för framtidsstudier, Holländargatan 13, 4th floor, Stockholm, or online.Research seminar with Martin O'Neill, Professor of Political Philosophy, University of York.Register here AbstraMy talk addresses the questions of the size of the public sector in a just society, and the range of goods and services which should be decommodified, and provided to citizens outside of market relationships, in such a society.
