Phi­lo­so­phers and legal theo­rists still dis­agree about the cor­rect ana­ly­sis of rights‘, both moral and legal. The Will Theo­ry‘ and the Inte­rest Theory‘–the two main views–can each account for various fea­tures of rights, but neither of them is total­ly satis­fac­to­ry. The con­tro­ver­sy has now been run­ning for deca­des and seems irre­sol­va­ble. I will con­t­end in this paper that the dis­cus­sion of value plu­ra­lism‘ in the Ber­li­ni­an tra­di­ti­on can illu­mi­na­te the deba­te over the con­cept of rights.
