The Harms of Trade II

View through CrossRef
Whereas Chapter 2 argues that trade must be restricted in order to protect humans from serious physical harms, this chapter contends that trade must be restricted in order to protect the physical integrity of non-human animals. For strategic reasons, it aims to defend animal-protecting trade restrictions without appealing to the claim that animals have rights, or that animal interests carry as much weight as human interests. The first part of the chapter identifies the aims of animal-protecting trade restrictions, the values they are intended to serve, and the nature of the harms they are used to prevent or reduce. The second part of the chapter examines a variety of objections to animal-protecting trade restrictions, and argues that those objections are unsuccessful.
