animal ethics  

Definición

  • Does it matter morally whether animals suffer or live long happy lives? Do animals have moral rights? The moral status of animals has become an increasingly important topic, with the morality of hunting, scientific experimentation on animals, and eating meat particularly widely discussed. This entry first discusses the contractualist view that animals have moral status and then examines several approaches to the status of animals: utilitarian, rights-based, and virtue-based.
