Suffering and Moral Responsibility - Oxford Ethics Series
Mayerfeld, Jamie (Assistant Professor of Political Science, Assistant Professor of Political Science, University of Washington)
In examining the duty to relieve suffering, the author argues that this duty is stronger than most of us acknowledge. He offers an account of the meaning of suffering, and moves on to discuss its moral significance, the resolution of trade-offs and when relief of suffering is not morally required.
