The Evolution of Morality
This chapter explores the evolutionary underpinnings of morality in social animals, particularly in primates, highlighting reciprocal behaviors observed among chimpanzees and capuchin monkeys. The discussion questions whether moral actions require intentionality and examines the implications of extending moral considerations to non-human animals. Through a lively debate, the speakers engage with philosophical interpretations of morality and gender equality, advocating for the inclusion of all rational beings in moral discourse.
