The Moral Demands of Affluence

More about the book

The book explores the moral obligations individuals have to assist those in dire need, arguing that such requirements stem from a credible moral outlook. Garrett Cullity delves into the concept of beneficence, refining and defending the argument for helping others while also identifying its limitations. He asserts that these moral obligations are meaningful only if they align with the idea that living a fulfilling life is not inherently wrong, thus balancing personal well-being with the duty to aid the less fortunate.
