Utylitaryzm (Peter Singer i inni)
Na początek zapraszam do posłuchania jednego z odcinków Philosophy Talk:
Utilitarianism
Gościem jest: Wayne Sumner, University Professor, Department of Philosophy, University of Toronto
Can morality be quantified? Can the good be calculated? Utilitarianism says the right action is the one which leads to the most overall happiness -– a deceptively simple theory, but not without its detractors. Is utilitarianism compatible with the idea that people have inalienable rights? Should we be so focused on the consequences of our actions? John and Ken welcome Wayne Sumner from the University of Toronto, author of "The Hateful and the Obscene: Studies in the Limits of Free Expression".
