Abstract
"Los animales no humanos son utilizados de manera habitual como recursos a nuestra disposición. Un argumento importante presente en la literatura sobre la cuestión defiende que tal uso está justificado debido a que no mantenemos con ellos los vínculos emocionales que nos unen a los demás seres humanos. Este artículo examina tal línea de razonamiento, y concluye que las asunciones tanto fácticas como normativas en las que descansa son incorrectas. Esto implica que la carga de la prueba cae del lado de quienes defienden el uso de animales no humanos. El artículo concluye sosteniendo que, hasta que se nos proporcione una defensa convincente del antropocentrismo, habremos de asumir que dicho uso no se encuentra moralmente justificado." ["Nonhuman animals are routinarily used as resources for us to use. An important argument in the literature on the issue claims that this is justified because we are not attached to them by the emotional ties that bind us to other human beings. This line of reasoning is examined here and found to be faulty as regards both its factual and its normative assumptions. This implies that the burden of proof rests on the side of those who want to defend the use of nonhuman animals. The paper concludes with the claim that until a sound defense of anthropocentrism is provided, we should assume that such use is not morally justified."]
