Abstract: | By distinguishing between contributory values and overall value, and by arguing that contributory values are variable values
insofar as they contribute diminishing marginal overall value, this article helps to establish the superiority of a certain
kind of maximizing, value-pluralist axiology over both sufficientarianism and prioritarianism, as well as over all varieties
of value-monism, including utilitarianism and pure egalitarianism. |
