Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on ethical and bioethical issues, with a significant emphasis on the philosophical work of Peter Singer. Articles analyze Singer's utilitarianism, effective altruism, and principles like the equal consideration of interests, applying them to topics such as animal ethics, infanticide, abortion, and the use of AI in healthcare. The journal also explores broader bioethical debates, including plant life ethics, historical philosophical figures, and cross-cultural ethical perspectives, particularly from African jurisprudence.
