Abstract

The article focuses on critically assessing and refining a key argument in Robert Nozick's Anarchy, State, and Utopia regarding the moral side constraints derived from the separateness of persons. Topics include the dual nature of these moral constraints as rights and obligations, Nozick's exploration of the implications of these constraints for the legitimacy of a minimal state, and the role of this argument in supporting Nozick's broader libertarian conclusions.
