 This concern, combined with the aforementioned concerns about welfarism, motivates a third view about how to conceive what is of ultimate concern in assessing economic distributions: resourcism. Resourcism reflects the concern to try to find an appropriately neutral way of assessing the respective advantage in life enjoyed by different people. The idea is that although reasonable people disagree about what gives life fundamental value and meaning, they can nevertheless agree that it is important to hold certain “all-purpose means” for the pursuit of whatever plans of life they have (see, for example, Rawls 1993: 187–190). In the simplest imaginable version of resourcism, we might focus solely on the level of income and/or wealth someone has in making a judgment about how well off they are in a fundamental sense.
