迈向一种能力进路的人权观——评纳斯鲍姆《寻求有尊严的生活》

Towards Human Rights Theory of Capabilities Approach——Comment on Nussbaum's “Creating Capabilities:The Human Development Approach”

玛莎·C·纳斯鲍姆和阿玛蒂亚·森共同提出的能力理论自其创立就体现出与人权的紧密联系,但这种联系究竟所指为何,两位创始人都没有从理论上提供一个系统的阐述。纳斯鲍姆《寻求有尊严的生活——正义的能力理论》的出版为我们把握这种联系提供了可能。事实上,此书从概念、内容到实施路径上为能力人权观提供了一个较为清晰的图景。就此而言,纳斯鲍姆所发展的能力理论就是人权理论的一种,或者更确切地说,其理论就是一种能力进路的人权观。

The theory of capabilities was closed to human rights as it was proposed by Martha C. Nussbaum and Amartya Sen. But neither of these two authors discussed the isomorphism more. In 2011 Nussbaum＇s pubIished her book＂Creating Capabilities： The Human Development Approach＂, in which she provided a clear frame From the core concepts, the basic contents to the implementations for human rights theory of capabilities approach. In this regard, Nussbaum＇s theory of capabilities is one of human rights theories, or more specifically, is human rights theory of capabilities approach.
