who is due moral consideration?

The main question this week is overarching: who is due moral consideration?

Discuss the implications of moral consideration on some of the following practices involving nonhuman animals: meat-eating habits, pet ownership, the use of nonhuman animals in experimentations, and keeping animals in zoos.

  • In what ways, if any, do any of the above actions represent incompatible, even contradictory, moral values?
  • Do humans have a moral obligation to modify our lifestyle in order to recognize the moral status of nonhuman others?
  • Do you believe any of the nonhuman animals mentioned above (pets, farmed animals, zoo animals, etc.) would qualify as moral subjects, and perhaps even moral agents?
  • Which perspective (utilitarian, social contract, Kantian, etc.) discussed in Chapter 15 is most consistent with your outlook on animals?
