In this episode, I have the pleasure of hosting Professor Peter Singer. Professor Singer gives an introduction to the theory of utilitarianism, the main arguments for it, and what major utilitarianists such as Bentham, Mill, Sidgwick, and Singer himself have contributed to the theory. Professor Singer also gives an overview of different types of utilitarianism and explains how utilitarianism is linked to his work on animal ethics.
