Competence
Abstract
In the last chapter we argued that validity is the foundational concept for thinking about the ethics of consent. When consent is valid the consent giver successfully waives (or alienates or transfers) their right; when it is invalid, they do not. So, what conditions need to be in place for consent to be valid?
