Living High and Letting Die and If Oxfam Ran the World

In this article, I will discuss Martha Nussbaum in his book "The life and abandonment at climax" on Peter Anger's view on poverty and her article "If Lotte World". Criticism against it and my view on their views. . After discussing the two basic ideas, I will discuss Ango's response to comments and advocacy of his philosophy. Finally, I will discuss why Nussbaum's reasoning was more logical and persuasive. Peter Unger tried to persuade the audience that the moral obligation is to do his utmost to reduce the world's suffering from poverty.

New York University philosopher Peter Anger said a series of creative works in his 1996 book "Abandoning life and death at climax" to explore our intuition that he has not given it I showed an imaginary example It is incorrect to send a good life with lots of money to help. People who are hungry, malnourished, or dying due to diseases that are easy to treat, such as diarrhea. I will give you an example. Bob is about to retire. He put most of his savings in a very rare and valuable old car, Bugatti, but that could not be guaranteed. Bugatti is his pride and joy. In addition to driving and caring for cars, Bob knows that the rise in his market value means that he can always sell and live comfortably after retirement. One day, when Bob went out to drive, he parked Bugatti near the end of the railroad paneling and walked on the railroad track.

Singer explained the reasons for reasoning by providing thinking experiments to readers in a book "Living alive and letting people die." In the experiment, a scene was proposed in which the child was on the track of the train and the train was facing him. Now, a man named Bob has the opportunity to save her. In order to do this, he had to switch the train by throwing a switch. But by doing so, he will also destroy his precious and expensive Bugatti. - From now until tomorrow morning, UNICEF estimates that 22,000 children die every day due to poverty. Over the day after tomorrow, more than 22,000 children will die, the next day and every subsequent day will die through 2013.

In the service world there are 19 million children who have not yet been vaccinated
