An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A person-affecting or person-based view (also called person-affecting restriction) in population ethics captures the intuition that an act can only be bad if it is bad for someone. Similarly something can be good only if it is good for someone. Therefore, according to standard person-affecting views, there is no moral obligation to create people nor moral good in creating people because nonexistence means "there is never a person who could have benefited from being created". Whether one accepts person-affecting views greatly influences to what extent shaping the far future is important (since there may be greatly more humans existing in the future than have ever existed). Person-affecting views are also important in considering human population control.

dbo:abstract
  • En el ámbito de la ética de la población, el enfoque centrado en la persona recoge la idea de que un acto solamente puede ser malo si es malo para alguien​ y de la misma forma algo sólo puede ser bueno si es bueno para alguien. La repercusión que esta teoría tiene sobre el control de la población es que no existe la obligación moral de crear personas ni el bien moral en la creación de personas porque la inexistencia significa que "nunca hay una persona que podría haberse beneficiado de la creación".​ Una forma también válida pero menos consistente de esta explicación es establecer que "un acto solo puede ser malo si es malo para una persona existente o futura". Este enfoque es una revisión del utilitarismo total en el que el "alcance de la mera adición" cambia desde todos los individuos que existirían a sólo un subconjunto de esos individuos (aquellos que ya existen).​ (es)

Person-affecting views are also important in considering human population control. A weaker form of person-affecting views states that an act can only be bad if it is bad for some existing or future person. Person-affecting views can be seen as a revision of total utilitarianism in which the "scope of the aggregation" is changed from all individuals who would exist to a subset of those individuals (though the details of this vary, see the section below). Some philosophers who have discussed person-affecting views include Derek Parfit, Jan Narveson, John Broome, Jeff McMahan, Larry Temkin, Tatjana Višak, Gustaf Arrhenius, Johann Frick, Nick Beckstead, and Hilary Greaves.
