“…Those who have different perspectives on personal responsibility, freedom, equality, and permissible paternalism that yield different theories of social justice, however, can also use this article's account of the minimally good life (Lippert-Rasmussen, 2015). Luck egalitarians and others who reject sufficiency theory might say we must only ensure people can live minimally good lives when they act responsibly, and insofar as doing so does not undermine individual freedom or require paternalism (Dworkin, 2000; Nussbaum, 2011).…”

What, if anything, do we owe others as a basic minimum? Sufficiency theorists claim that we must provide everyone with enough – but, to date, few well-worked-out accounts of the sufficiency threshold exist, so it is difficult to evaluate this proposition. Previous theories do not provide plausible, independent accounts of resources, capabilities, or welfare that might play the requisite role. Moreover, I believe existing accounts do not provide nearly enough guidance for policymakers. So, this article sketches a mechanism for arriving at an account of the minimally good life that can help locate the sufficiency threshold.
