Habilitation, Health, and Agency: A Framework for Basic Justice
Becker, Lawrence C. (Fellow, Fellow, Hollins University, and Professor of Philosophy Emeritus, College of William and Mary)
Lawrence C. Becker introduces an unconventional set of background ideas for future philosophical work on normative theories of basic justice. The organizing concept is habilitation - the process of equipping a person or thing with functional abilities or capacities. The specific proposals drawn from the concept of habilitation are independent of any particular set of distributive principles. The result is a framework for theory that includes a metric for the pursuitof basic justice, but not a normative theory of it.
