7. ¿Por qué el limitarismo?

Este capítulo responde a la crítica de Robert Huseby de que el limitarismo instrumental no es genuinamente limitarista. Primero, introduzco la distinción entre la filosofía orientada-a-los-problemas frente a la orientada-a-la-teoría, la cual es relevante para evaluar mi trabajo previo sobre el limitarismo. Después, replanteo y refino el limitarismo con base en desarrollos recientes en la literatura. Después argumento que el limitarismo es distinto del igualitarismo, así como del suficientarismo. El limitarismo encaja bien como una parte de una concepción pluralista de la justicia distributiva. Concluyo argumentando que el limitarismo podría desempeñar un papel distintivo tanto en la filosofía política como en la sociedad.
