The Morality of Price/Quality and Ethical Consumerism
Res Publica 25 (3):425-438 (2019)
Abstract
Hussain claims that ethical consumers are subject to democratic requirements of morality, whereas ordinary price/quality consumers are exempt from these requirements. In this paper, we demonstrate that Hussain’s position is incoherent, does not follow from the arguments he offers for it, and entails a number of counterintuitive consequences.Author's Profile
