Beyond Welfare: A Preliminary BahĂĄâĂ Normative Framework for Economic Rights and Responsibilities
Invoking a broad catalog of applicable BahĂĄâĂ principles, this paper presents the conceptual and theoretical underpinnings of a BahĂĄâĂ approach to economic growth and disparity and then maps these concepts onto an applied framework of economic rights and responsibilities.

how these principles might lead to normative prescriptions for economic rights and responsibilities. The paper concludes that the BahĂĄâĂ principles dealing with economic prosperity expand the theory and
practice of economic justice and give rise to individual and institutional rights and responsibilities that go beyond the imperatives of conventional models of welfare
