%0 Journal Article %T Well-Being and Objectivity %A Jakub Bo£¿ydar Wi£¿niewski %J Libertarian Papers %D 2011 %I Ludwig von Mises Institute %X In this paper, I investigate the issue of whether there exists an objective element of well-being, completely independent of anyone¡¯s desires, interests and preferences. After rejecting health-based and convention-based approaches to objectivity, I conclude that the element in question consists in respecting autonomy, voluntariness of every purposive agent and the principle of non-aggression. %K libertarianism %K libertarian theory %U http://libertarianpapers.org/2011/7-wisniewski-well-being-and-objectivity/
