De la spécificité de l’humain. Dispute à propos du spécisme
Avec les attaques israélo-américaines sur l’Iran et les ripostes iraniennes, la Corne de l’Afrique (et notamment Djibouti) est aux premières loges de l’embrasement du Moyen-Orient. Plus à l’Ouest, Éthiopie et Érythrée se rapprochent à nouveau d’un affrontement tandis que le Soudan s’enlise dans une guerre civile sous perfusion extérieure. Du Sahel au golfe de Guinée, la menace djihadiste s’installe, profitant de réponses fragmentées
How to Define Speciesism
Ours Is a Speciesist World, Really
To date, much of the speciesism debate has centered on an ethical question: Can speciesism be justified, or is it immoral, as the analogy with racism suggests? Another question has received less attention: How prevalent is speciesism? Animal ethicists have largely assumed that speciesism is pervasive in our societies. After all, almost everyone routinely treats animals in ways they would never treat fellow humans. This widespread assumption is no…
Indirect Defenses of Speciesism Make No Sense
Animal ethicists often distinguish between direct and indirect defenses of speciesism, where the former appeal to species membership and the latter invoke other features that are simply associated with it. The main extant charge against indirect defenses rests on the empirical claim that any feature other than membership in our species is either absent in some humans or present in some nonhumans. This paper challenges indirect defenses with a new…
Prudential Parity Objections to the Moral Error Theory
According to the moral error theory, all moral judgments are false. Until lately, most error theorists were local error theorists; they targeted moral judgments specifically and were less skeptical of other normative areas. These error theorists now face so-called “prudential parity objections,” according to which whatever evidence there is in favor of the moral error theory is also evidence for a prudential error theory. The present paper reject…

Retracted
This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy). The authors discovered from comments on their open data that Studies 1 and 2 of their manuscript suffered from a serious flaw. There was a mistake in the Python code they used, and the items (vignettes) were not properly randomized across conditions. In Study 1 (which investigated the effect of cognitive load on mor…
A debunking argument against speciesism
Sorting Out Solutions to the Now-What Problem
Moral error theorists face the so-called “now-what problem”: what should we do with our moral judgments from a prudential point of view if these judgments are uniformly false? On top of abolitionism and conservationism, which respectively advise us to get rid of our moral judgments and to keep them, three revisionary solutions have been proposed in the literature: expressivism (we should replace our moral judgments with conative attitudes), natur…
