Description
This is an academic approach to animal ethics. The issue of animal ethics is usually discussed in a highly emotive fashion, (usually accompanied with gruesome images). This makes it hard to see the arguments clearly. This course deliberately avoids emotive content or images in order to allow you to focus on the issues at stake. Humans have rights - most importantly the right to life and the right to liberty. Should animals have these same rights? If not what kind of rights should they have, or is rights the wrong language?
Suitable for students who want to be well informed and/or studying AQA A level Religious Studies. Includes
