El caso del centinela
En el marco de su sentimentalismo moral, Adam Smith elabora una noción de justicia en la que fusiona una justicia retributiva, similar a la de su antecesor Joseph Butler, con elementos protoutilitaristas como los de su coetáneo David Hume. Smith sintetiza estas dos tradiciones por medio de un juicio compuesto, en el que articula el resentimiento que causa el daño provocado por un igual con la utilidad social que tendrá el castigo. Identificando l…
Smith at 300
Adam Smith is known as a liberal thinker. The political system that he promotes and describes as one of “perfect justice, perfect liberty, and perfect equality” ( Wealth of Nations [1776] 1981; WN IV.ix.17:669) is characterized by the primacy of the rights of non-interference and the protection of a private sphere where every individual directs her life according to her own decisions. The moral justification for the primacy of negative justice is…
"Loving Attention" in Murdoch, Smith, and the Ethics of Care
At some point in our lives, we have all needed care and we have all given care to others. Since the functions of care are usually and preferentially performed by women—often at the expense of their own personal development, job opportunities, and social protection—in recent decades, care ethics has emphasized the need for care to be a shared responsibility. For example, Carol Gilligan, one of the founders of care ethics, said, “Within a patriarch…
Introduction to the Special Issue
Caring is a human universal. All of us, throughout our lives, have needed care and will need it again, have given care and will be asked to give care again. Although only a few decades old, the ethics of care have resonated across disciplines and traditions of thought. Our aim in this special issue of the New Centennial Review is precisely to present “new ways of thinking care,” ranging from its more biological explanations, showing how even at t…
Fallacy of the last bed dilemma
The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the relevance of adequate decision making at both public health and healthcare levels. A bioethical response to the demand for medical care, supplies and access to critical care is needed. Ethically sound strategies are required for the allocation of increasingly scarce resources, such as rationing critical care beds. In this regard, it is worth mentioning the so-called ‘last bed dilemma’. In this paper, we examin…

Male clients of female sex workers (CFSWs) are a key-affected group within the HIV epidemic. However, few studies have quantified HIV/STI burdens among CFSWs. This study used nationally representative data from the 2013–14 Zambia Demographic and Health Survey to estimate proxies for HIV and STI prevalence among sexually active men aged 15–59 paying for sex recently (past 12 months) [5%, n = 679] or in their lifetime [15%, n = 1,887]. Chi-square t…

Morality, Impartiality and Due Partialities
Reinterpretación del espectador imparcial
Durante la Ilustración escocesa se legitimó la “perspectiva del espectador imparcial” como garantía de juicios morales imparciales. Esta escuela de pensamiento se ha considerado tradicionalmente como la antesala del utilitarismo. Sin embargo, actualmente se sostiene que, aunque Hutcheson y Hume sí son protoutilitaristas, la teoría de Smith es la primera gran crítica al utilitarismo. En este ensayo atribuyo esta diferencia a la posición desde la q…
