  Is Eating Meat Wrong? | Julian Baggini

  Sep 7, 202658 minS1

  Is it wrong to eat meat? Should you have to kill it yourself? And why does a fairer food system have to be a more expensive one? You can eat well, cheaply, and with more choice than any generation in history. Someone, somewhere, is paying for it, usually the poorest people, the animals, or the planet. Philosopher Julian Baggini has spent years working out how our food system actually functions, and what it would take to make it fair. This is not the conversation you expect. Julian argues that eating animals is not wrong in itself, that going vegan does not eliminate animal suffering, that lab-grown meat could be the food world's Theranos, and that the injustice baked into cheap food is a feature, not a bug. Along the way he lays out seven principles for a better food system and tests them against real cases: chocolate, coffee, salmon, cultured meat, and even food in space. Julian is the author of more than 20 books, including "How the World Eats: A Global Food Philosophy". He co-founded The Philosophers' Magazine and has built his career making serious ideas clear for everyone. ➡️ How The World Eats: A Global Food Philosophy: https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-World-Ea ... ➡️ Julian Baggini: https://www.julianbaggini.com ( ‪@microphilosophy‬ ) ➡️ Phlexible Philosophy: https://www.phlexiblephilosophy.com/

  The Ethics of Humanitarian Intervention, with Jonathan Parry

  Jun 16, 202540 minS1

  <p>The Rwandan Genocide was one of the most horrific events of the twentieth century. After decades of unrest between Rwanda’s two biggest tribes, the Tutsi’s and the Hutu’s, civil war finally broke out on the 7th of April 1994, and over the next thirty days, 800,000 people were killed in cold blood, while the world stood back and watched.</p><p>UN forces were in Rwanda at the time, but they were ordered not to intervene, and many withdrew within the first few weeks of fighting.

  The Open Society, with J. McKenzie Alexander

  Mar 19, 202540 minS1

  <p>Karl Popper was one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Widely considered to be the father of modern science, Popper introduced the principle of falsificationism which states that for a theory to be considered scientific, it must have a hypothesis which is falsifiable, or capable of being disproven. A theory with a hypothesis which cannot be disproven, like the belief that God created the universe in seven days, is not rightly understood to be a scientific theory.</p><p>Popper turned his attention to political philosophy during the Second World War, culminating in the publication of...

  Economics for Neglected Places, with Paul Collier

  Nov 12, 202438 minS1

  <p>Sheffield was once the steel-making capital of the world. During the First Industrial Revolution, almost half of the steel used in Europe was produced in Sheffield; and during both World Wars, the city became a bombing target because of the central role it played in arming the British military. This rich steel-making tradition began to decline under Margaret Thatcher. In the 1980s, market forces caused several of Sheffield’s steel works to close and the British steel industry was ultimately privatised. Sheffield – once known as the Steel City – has never fully recovered; and</p><p>South Yorkshire is now the po...
