Sandy Steel (University Oxford) has posted Compensation and Continuity on SSRN. Here is the abstract:
This paper is about the justification of moral duties to compensate. It examines one family of justifications for these duties - justifications which hold that the duty to compensate is justified as a continuation of the original duty breached, the reasons justifying that duty, or the right infringed or violated. It clarifies these accounts, tests them against largely undiscussed objections, and offers a qualified defence.
