<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This book contains the most important contemporary discussions of the philosophical foundations of left-libertarianism. Like the more familiar right-libertarianism (such as that of Nozick), left-libertarianism holds that agents own themselves (and thus owe no service the others expect as the result of voluntary action). Unlike right-libertarianism, however, left-libertarianism holds that natural resources are owned by the members of society in some egalitarian manner, and may be appropriated only with their permission, or with a significant payment to them.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>PETER VALLENTYNE is Professor of Philosophy at the Virginia Commonwealth University. He has written on a variety of issues in consequentialist moral theory, and edited<em> Contractarianism and Rational Choice: Essays on the Work of David Gauthier</em> (1991). He is currently developing a version of left-libertarianism (combining self-ownership with egalitarianism). <p/>HILLEL STEINER is Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Manchester. A Fellow of the British Academy, he has published papers on liberty, rights and moral reasoning, and is the author of<em> An Essay on Rights </em>(1994) and (with Matthew Kramer and Nigel Simmonds)<em> A Debate Over Rights: Philosophical Enquiries</em> (1998).
