Title: Tradeoff Cases: Respecting Rights While Permitting Their Infringement
Authors: Ong, Laura
Advisors: Rosen, Gideon A.
Department: Philosophy
Certificate Program: Program in Values and Public Life
Class Year: 2017
Abstract: When we try to formulate a principle for when one person’s right may be infringed in order to promote the welfare of one or more others, we confront two unappealing alternatives: a quantitative view of rights, and a view on which rights trump considerations of welfare in every case.
