3340 - 社會:動物權利 英授 Taught in English

Animal Rights

教育目標 Course Target

本課程目標如下:
1. 以科學的方式探討動物在人類管理下所受到之不必要之痛苦,然後以科學技術將這些痛 苦降至最低。然後將這些技術列入法律,強制要求人類實施,以實現人類之道德義務。
2. 以動物之感知能力為尊重動物道德利益之基礎,主張人類對不同感知能力之動物,應給予不同尊重之程度。在倫理學上以義務論與結果論為主要之研究方法,其主要價值原則是:即使是好的結果,若使用惡的手段,也不予接受。

The objectives of this course are as follows:
1. Explore in a scientific way the unnecessary suffering that animals suffer under human management, and then use science and technology to minimize this suffering. These technologies are then included in the law, forcing humans to implement them in order to realize human moral obligations.
2. Taking the sensory abilities of animals as the basis for respecting the moral interests of animals, it is advocated that humans should give different degrees of respect to animals with different sensory abilities. In ethics, deontology and consequentialism are the main research methods, and their main value principle is: even good results will not be accepted if evil means are used.
