Abstract: This essay explores Sen's claim that rights-realization can be consequentially evaluated. Supporting this claim, it attempts to show that the value pluralism thereby presupposed is sufficient to render superfluous the idea — advanced by Sen and others— of 'agent-relativity' as a structural feature of ethical judgment.
