Help Dateline: May 03, 2000 "SCIENCE, RELIGION & RUSSELL" > Page The Case of Singer Of course, it should not be assumed that only religious schools suffer from such problems. Even prestigious Princeton University has had to endure protests against competent professors due to their unpopular and controversial views. Every year, Princeton appoints respected scholars as members of its tenured faculty. For 1999, they appointed Peter Singer as the DeCamp Professor in the University Center for Human Values. Peter Singer is one of the preeminent scholars in the very contemporary field of bioethics and has served as the president of the International Association of Bioethics and edited their official journal, among many other achievements and accolades. You'd think that, as with the case of Russell, such an appointment would be popular; but as with the case of Russell, it primarily created a firestorm of protest. To be fair, there are differences - for example, Russell's supporters argued that he wasn't hired to teach ethics and so his private views weren't so important. Singer, on the other hand, was specifically hired to teach and explain his theories about ethics. And unlike Russell, Singer was supported by the university administration and did manage to take his faculty position.

Printer Friendly Version The New Grim Reapers: Practitioners of Bioethics Say Who Should Live and Who Should Die By: Wesley J. Smith San Francisco Chronicle June 9, 2002 Is all human cloning wrong? Should doctors be allowed to kill people in permanent comas and harvest their organs? Would it be moral to deny expensive medical procedures to the seriously ill and disabled in order to provide health coverage for the uninsured? Do elderly people have a duty to die to spare their families and communities the financial and emotional costs of their care? These and even more provocative questions are the grist of bioethics, a relatively new field of philosophy that grapples with issues of morality in the context of health care and biotechnology. In this era of high-tech medicine, when genetic researchers aspire to seize control of human evolution, bioethical issues may seem beyond the comprehension of mere mortals. That is why the practitioners of bioethics have gained so much influence: They claim to have the answers. They advise presidents about controversial health-related policies. They testify in front of state and federal legislative committees. They appear in courts as expert witnesses. They consult with biotech companies engaged in research into human cloning. University bioethicists teach ethics to the doctors and nurses of tomorrow.

Essay FROM THE ARCHIVE Deep Ideas About Life By ARTHUR CAPLAN DENISE APPLEWHITE / PRINCETON UNIVERSITY FROM THE TIME ARCHIVE The Perils of Treading on Heredity Uncontrolled tampering with DNA could stir up a host of ethical dilemmas [3/20/1989] I remember the first time I met Peter Singer. It was in 1974. He was a polite, affable Australian with curly brown hair, glasses and a plastic belt. Little did I know that behind his refusal to wear leather was one of the most influential moral philosophies of our time. His seminal book, Animal Liberation, appeared a year later. It laid out a careful argument for giving moral standing to animals on the basis of their capacity to suffer. It galvanized movements around the world to restrict animal research and abolish factory farming. It also set off passionate debates that are reflected today in arguments about the morality of third-trimester abortions, stem-cell research and the removal of feeding tubes from people in permanent vegetative states.

Other People's Mothers The utilitarian horrors of Peter Singer by Peter Berkowitz The New Republic JANUARY 10, 2000, pp A Darwinian Left: Politics, Evolution, and Cooperation by Peter Singer (Yale University Press, 64 pp., $9.95) Practical Ethics, Second Edition by Peter Singer (Cambridge University Press, 395 pp., $18.95) I. In early September, The New York Times Sunday Magazine featured a brief article on the solution to world poverty, which in a few short, snappy steps argued to the astonishing conclusion that middle-class American households have a moral obligation to contribute more than one-third of their income (and all households every cent earned above $30,000) to the hungry and disadvantaged around the globe. The editors at the paper seemed to see no irony in the appearance of such an argument in the same magazine whose style and fashion pages regularly promote some of the most conspicuous consumption of the day. Introducing the author of the article, the Times proclaimed the Australian- born and Oxford-trained philosophy professor Peter Singer to be "perhaps the world's most controversial ethicist." And a week before, Singer, who had been recently appointed amid much (and continuing) furor to a new chair in bioethics at Princeton's University Center for Human Values, was the subject of a long and largely flattering profile in The New Yorker, whose front flap declared him "the most influential living philosopher." Since celebrity is anything but the ordinary reward for a life devoted to teaching and philosophical reflection on ethics, the case of Peter Singer endows the obvious questionswhy the controversy?

52. All Animals Are Equal, By Peter Singer Article from Tom Regan and peter singer (eds.) Animal Rights and Human Obligations (New Jersey, 1989). http://www.animal-rights-library.com/texts-m/singer02.htm

All Animals Are Equal by Peter Singer Animal Rights and Human Obligations , New Jersey, 1989, pp. 148-162 Acrobat version One should always be wary of talking of "the last remaining form of discrimination." If we have learnt anything from the liberation movements, we should have learnt how difficult it is to be aware of latent prejudice in our attitudes to particular groups until this prejudice is forcefully pointed out. All this may sound a little far-fetched, more like a parody of other liberation movements than a serious objective. In fact, in the past the idea of "The Rights of Animals" really has been used to parody the case for women's rights. When Mary Wollstonecraft, a forerunner of later feminists, published her Vindication of the Rights of Women in 1792, her ideas were widely regarded as absurd, and they were satirized in an anonymous publication entitled A Vindication of the Rights of Brutes . The author of this satire (actually Thomas Taylor, a distinguished Cambridge philosopher) tried to refute Wollstonecraft's reasonings by showing that they could be carried one stage further. If sound when applied to women, why should the arguments not be applied to dogs, cats, and horses? They seemed to hold equally well for these "brutes"; yet to hold that brutes had rights was manifestly absurd; therefore the reasoning by which this conclusion had been reached must be unsound, and if unsound when applied to brutes, it must also be unsound when applied to women, since the very same arguments had been used in each case.

To examine the many ethical issues related to food, the authors followed around three families: a Wal-Mart shopping family who eats fast food, an environmentally-conscientious family, and a vegan family. Catherine Clyne asked Peter Singer about his new book and how his strategy for animal liberation has changed over time, and about some of his controversial views on animal welfare reform.
