Rights as alternative game forms

Social Choice and Welfare, 2004, vol. 22, issue 1, 83-111

Abstract: The paper analyzes the problem of modeling rights using extensive game forms with perfect information. Three dimensions of rights – protocol, autonomy and power – are identified and it is shown, that under a certain condition, the effectivity function captures completely all rights relevant aspects of a game form. The condition under which this is possible is interpretable both as a particular formulation of individual liberty and as a rejection of consequentialism. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2004
