The standard version of sufficientarianism maintains that providing people with enough, or as close to enough as is possible, is lexically prior to other distributive goals. This article argues that this is excessive – more than distributive justice allows – in four distinct ways. These concern the magnitude of advantage, the number of beneficiaries, responsibility and desert, and above-threshold distribution. Sufficientarians can respond by accepting that providing enough unconditionally is more than distributive justice allows, instead balancing sufficiency against other considerations.

够多了:对充分主义的过度反对

充足主义的标准版本认为,为人们提供足够的或尽可能接近的,在词汇上优先于其他分配目标。本文认为这是过度的——超过分配正义所允许的——以四种不同的方式。这些涉及优势的大小、受益者的数量、责任和应得以及阈值以上的分配。充足主义者可以通过接受无条件提供足够多于分配正义所允许的这一点来回应,而不是平衡充足与其他考虑因素。
