I have set out in this book to develop and defend a Kantian approach to environmental ethics. This immediately raises a question: why should we want an environmental ethic at all, much less a Kantian one? Human beings face serious environmental problems, such as those associated with climate change, loss of biodiversity, and air pollution.1 It seems clear that these problems have various ethical dimensions, given that they threaten to increase human mortality rates, cause substantial harm to present and future generations, and exacerbate socio-economic injustice.2 Moreover, the impact of human activities on the environment, such as ocean acidification due to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse

  • ''OUR FELLOW CREATURES'' to My Great Regret, My Personal Relations with Jim Rachels Were Never Extensive. but His Influe
    JEFF MCMAHAN ‘‘OUR FELLOW CREATURES’’ (Received and accepted 19 February 2005) ABSTRACT. This paper defends ‘‘moral individualism’’ against various arguments that have been intended to show that membership in the human species or participation in our distinctively human form of life is a sufficient basis for a moral status higher than that of any animal. Among the arguments criticized are the ‘‘nature-of-the-kind argument,’’ which claims that it is the nature of all human beings to have certain higher psychological capacities, even if, contingently, some human beings lack them, and various versions of the idea that there is a special form of life that all human beings share but of which no animal can be a full participant. The paper concludes that none of these arguments succeeds in demonstrating that there are moral reasons to permit animals to be treated less well than members of our own species whose psychological capacities and potential are no higher than those of the animals. KEY WORDS: animals, cognitive disability, common humanity, Cora Diamond, ethics, George Pitcher, James Rachels, moral individualism, Raimond Gaita, Stephen Mulhall 1. MORAL INDIVIDUALISM To my great regret, my personal relations with Jim Rachels were never extensive. But his influence on my thinking and on the way I practice philosophy has been pervasive. Although I am more deferential to moral intuition and to certain elements of common sense morality than he was, the conclusions at which I have arrived about various issues in practical ethics have tended to coincide rather closely with his, which is to say that they are abhorrent to all right- thinking people.

  • © 2019 Alice Louise Brown LES HISTOIRES FRANÇAISES D’AVARICE JUSQU’AUX TEMPS MODERNES
    © 2019 Alice Louise Brown LES HISTOIRES FRANÇAISES D’AVARICE JUSQU’AUX TEMPS MODERNES BY ALICE LOUISE BROWN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in French in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2019 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Emanuel Rota, Chair Professor Nancy Blake Professor Jean-Philippe Mathy Associate Professor Eleonora Stoppino ABSTRACT This study is an intellectual and cultural history of greed with emphasis on the impact religious and political change had on the concept of avarice from the mid 15th to the beginning of the 18th century. I trace how the evolution of the thinking of crucial French writers contributed to a new categorization of the notion of avarice, translated as either greed or cupidity in the early modern era. Contextualizing greed as discussed by the canon of early modern writers enables us to understand how the concept of avarice played a crucial role in the economic and political debates in France and throughout Europe, and the impact it ultimately had on the larger Mediterranean and Atlantic world. Greed transitions from a sin of overconsumption into one of over-accumulation. This shifting paradigm is crucial to shape our understanding of the longevity of the vice in Western thought.
