Animalismo
animales y personas que comparten derechos
Alcalá, César
For tens of thousands of years, nature has provided plant and animal food for humans. In addition, on numerous occasions some species have been an essential instrument for the development and evolution of societies. Today some try to hide this reality. They want to grant equal nature to humans and other living beings. Are we facing an error in philosophy? Does this respond to that kind of increasingly invasive social sentimentality? Do we find an open response from animals similar to the one we grant them? This book clearly reveals the excesses of animalistic formulations, which equate human rights with animal rights; provides solid arguments to explain to the defenders of animalism that their positions are inordinately personalistic, and that their postulates come from the real ignorance of true rights and their consequences. The author draws attention to this egalitarian trend, which transfers certain human rights to animals. The animalistic purpose leads to a kind of confused moral tangle, since from rights derive responsibilities that an animal cannot assume. The acts of an animal lack will, conscience and freedom and are solely the result of instinct. Faced with this position, there is also a positive animalism that does not share the mistreatment of any creature of nature.
