Can a Duty or a Right Be Held Disjunctively?

This paper defends Matthew Kramer's novel proposal that sometimes an individually borne duty can be owed to correlative right‐holders disjunctively. It extends the proposal, suggesting that sometimes an individually held right entails correlative duties that are borne disjunctively. Drawing on a suggestion from Zofia Stemplowska, the paper argues that this extension of Kramer's proposal can be developed into a new solution to Onora O'Neill's famous claimability objection to natural human rights to goods and services. The idea is that my human right to subsistence supplies—to take one example—entails preinstitutional correlative duties borne by a disjunction of the agents who could help me secure subsistence.
