Robert Nozick argues that “liberty upsets patterns” and that we should not, therefore, choose a “patterned” conception of justice. Instead we should choose his “entitlement theory” (a historical theory of justice that says any pattern of holdings is just as long as it was produced by the right kind of historical process – in this case, by voluntary transactions). How does the example about Wilt Chamberlain illustrate and support Nozick’s point of view?
