If one takes seriously the intrinsically social nature of persons, a preferential option for the poor, the universal destination of goods, and other like principles, the central thesis of the dissertation becomes clear: though all newly born human infants are full moral persons, what kind of treatments are beneficial or burdensome cannot be seen apart from complex social questions with regard to distribution of resources. cache/1c18df67n1c.txt txt/1c18df67n1c.txt
