  1. Protection for the Sentient in the Nonideal World: A Review of Robert Garner’s A Theory of Justice for Animals. [REVIEW]Josh Milburn - 2015 - Journal of Animal Ethics 5 (1):69-75,.

    Plusieurs commentateurs – incluant certains théoriciens des droits des animaux – ont soutenu que les animaux non humains ne peuvent pas être considérés comme des membres du dèmos parce qu’il leur manque les capacités critiques d’autonomie et d’agentivité morale qui seraient essentielles à la citoyenneté.

La citoyenneté requiert la maîtrise de soi et la sensibilité aux (...)
