Empty Cages: Facing the Challenge of Animal Rights
Empty Cages: Facing the Challenge of Animal Rights
Described by Jeffrey Masson as "the single best introduction to animal rights ever written," this new book by Tom Regan will structure the animal rights debate for generations to come. In a style at once simple and elegant, Regan dispels the negative image of animal rights advocates perpetrated by the mass media, unmasks the fraudulent rhetoric of "humane treatment" favored by animal exploiters, and explains why existing laws function to legitimi…

The Case For Animal Rights
I regard myself as an advocate of animal rights—as part of the animal rights movement. That movement, as I conceive it, is committed to a number of goals, including

Animal Rights, Human Wrongs
At this moment workers on board the mother ship of a pirate whaling vessel are disassembling the carcass of a whale. Though officially protected by agreement of the International Whaling Commission, pirate whalers operate outside IWC regulations, and it is not too incredible to imagine them butchering a great blue whale, the largest creature ever known to have lived on the earth—larger than thirty elephants, larger even than three of the largest …
An Examination and defense of one Argument concerning Animal rights
An argument is examined and defended for extending basic moral rights to animals which assumes that humans, including infants and the severely mentally enfeebled, have such rights. It is claimed that this argument proceeds on two fronts, one critical, where proposed criteria of right‐possession are rejected, the other constructive, where proposed criteria are examined with a view to determining the most reasonable one. This form of argument is de…

Moore's Accounts of ‘Right’
Moore often is credited with implying the view that the meaning of evaluative or normative concepts is distinct from the criteria invoked to justify evaluative or normative judgments. A second view, to the effect that definitions cannot be evaluative or moral assertions, is attributed to him less frequently. In this paper, I shall argue that, while these views seem to be implied by much of what Moore says in Principia Ethica , Moore was not himse…
