Capabilities and Social Justice (The Political Philosophy of Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum)

The capability approach to social justice construes a person's well-being in terms of the substantive freedoms people value beyond mere utility or access to resources. In this book, John Alexander engages with the rapidly growing body of literature on the capability approach in economics, inequality and poverty measurement, and development studies, paying particular attention to Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum's collaborative work on the capability approach in normative economics, social ethics and political philosophy.
