SUMMARIZE :Tom Regan, “The Case for Animal Rights”
"The Case for Animal Rights"
We have to treat each subject of a life is an individual.
Each subject of a life is an individual who cares about his or her life, that life has inherent value. This value is equal among all subjects of a life. Inherent value does not come in degrees, and it is not dependent on the individual'experiences or utility to others.
According to Regan, human rights are validated with respect to moral principles:
Justice: We have to treat those individuals who have inherent value in ways that respect their inherent value. This has an advantage over the utilitarian view, by which a wrongful act against an innocent is justified.
Through this respect principle, all subjects of life, as a matter of justice, have a basic moral right to respectful treatment, which recognizes their inherent value.
Regan rejects three ideas related to the "rights and place of Animals".
*Regan argues this approach because torturing animals does not just hurt humans
*Regan explained the cruelty kindness view. According to this view, our behavior toward animals is fine as long as we aren't cruel towards them. An action may be a kind but it may not be right easier.
*Regarding the utilitarian approach, his view is that it denies that individuals have inherent values and also that any action can be justified if the end result is good.
He encounters these all views according to his own thoughts. According to his view, not only humans but also every life (Animals) has inherent value and treating anyone with value as a resource is wrong.
In his book, he points about the right acts, treating all individuals with respect and not using them for some other gain.
According to him those who satisfy the subject-of-a-life criterion themselves have a distinct kind of value (Inherent value).
Thus we can say central to his philosophy is his subject-of-a-life criterion.
