Annotations: Moral Obligation and Absence
This paper consists of three separate expanded annotations. You might relate them to absence in these ways:
First, the absence of global communication up until the time of Singer’s writing positioned him to make radical claims about moral philosophy.
Second, Singer argues for the inclusion of actions that are absent from previous philosophers’ ideas about obligation.
Third, the absence of clarity in Singer’s use of the word “involvement” threatens the stability of his argument for effective altruism.
