TAILIEUCHUNG - Moral Status Phần 2

Đạo đức là tập hợp những quan điểm của một xã hội, của một tầng lớp xã hội, của một tập hợp người nhất định về thế giới, về cách sống. Nhờ đó con người điều chỉnh hành vi của mình sao cho phù hợp với lợi ích của cộng đồng xã hội . | The Concept of Moral Status 19 I argue that personhood in the full-blooded sense that requires the capacity for moral agency is indeed a sufficient condition for full moral status. It is not however a necessary condition infants and mentally disabled human beings ought to have the same basic moral rights as other sentient human beings even though they may not be persons in this sense. In the weaker sense which does not require moral agency personhood is sufficient for a moral status stronger than that of mentally simpler organisms such as worms or oysters but it is not sufficient for full moral status. Genetic humanity on the other hand is at best an indicator not an independently valid criterion of moral status. Some genetically human entities . sperm and ova may have little or no moral status while some non-human entities may have full moral status. Chapter 5 examines two theories of moral status which are based upon relational rather than intrinsic properties. Some deep ecologists such as J. Baird Callicott hold that the moral status of a member of a particular biological species depends entirely upon that species role positive or negative within a social or biotic community. Feminist ethicists such as Nel Noddings have argued that the moral status of living things always depends upon our emotional connections to I argue that both these theories contain insights that need to be incorporated into an adequate account of moral status but that neither membership in a social or biological community nor emotional connectedness can serve as the sole criterion of moral status. Chapter 6 proposes a new account of moral status which gives weight both to such intrinsic properties as life sentience and personhood and to social emotional and biosystemic relationships. I shall say more about this presently. In Part II this multi-criterial approach to moral status is applied to three contemporary moral issues. Chapter 7 reviews the principles proposed in Chapter 6 .
