Moral Status and Human Life: The Case for Childrens Superiority

Moral Status and Human Life: The Case for Childrens Superiority This work of applied moral philosophy develops a comprehensive account of how adults as moral agents ascribe moral status to beings - ourselves and others - and on the basis of that account identifies multiple criteria for having moral status. It argues that proper application of those criteria should lead us to treat children as of greater moral importance than adults. Autor: James G.
