Unlimited Acquisition and Equality of Right: A Rejoinder to Professor Seaman
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 November 2009
Extract
Professor Seaman contends that I am mistaken in asserting a logical connection between equality of right and unlimited acquisition. I argued that equality of right as employed by Locke in the Second Treatise logically entails the right of unlimited acquisition, and a consequent danger of environmental destruction, resulting from the necessary commitment of political structures to unlimited acquisition.

9 Much more should be said about the adequacy of compensation for the alienated right to nature. However, to grasp the basic line of argument one can, perhaps, do no better than examine Thomas Paine's advice to the French Republic on this matter in 1897.
