Many of the products that we consume are generated in wrongful ways. For example, much clothing is produced in ways that involve the unjust “sweatshop” exploitation of laborers, and much food is produced by horrific factory farming of non-human animals. These facts seem relevant to what consumers should do, but how?
This talk lead by Tristram McPherson will introduce some influential models of the relationship of the consumer to these sorts of wrongs, and explore how these models can help us to think more clearly about our ethical obligations as consumers.
