Agricultural technology, wealth, and responsibility
Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics 3 (1):21-35 (1990)
| Abstract | Responsibility as a dual to human rights is presented as a moral alternative to extended, complex systems of animal and ecological rights. This simple idea of responsibility is then applied to four levels of agricultural technology: animal (nature) rights, conservation, organization of agriculture, and people versus planet relationships. The stewardship argument is freed from at least some of the complications of animal rights and ecology, but leaves responsibility with humans to do the right thing. | |||||||||
