Which of the Following Can We Infer from the Woollard's

Question 436

Multiple Choice

Which of the following can we infer from the Woollard's claim that the responsibility of affluent people to prevent poverty deaths may properly be seen as reparations rather than aid?


A) Since proximity is not a morally relevant factor when determining reparative obligations, people from affluent nations may still have duties to make substantial sacrifice to prevent poverty-related deaths even if proximity is not morally relevant to the duty to aid.
B) Poorer nations that contribute to climate change to develop their economies to the level of industrialized nations have no duty to prevent pollution-related deaths.
C) Since it is difficult to precisely trace the fault of poverty-related deaths to the actions of affluent countries, people in such countries only have duties to prevent such deaths if they have a close connection with victims.
D) Affluent countries have responsibilities to equally distribute their wealth to poorer countries so that all countries eventually have the same resources per capita.
