Yay, Martha Nussbaum, You go, girl!

Martha Nussbaum has a wonderful article in The Chronicle Review for February 3, 2006. Titled "The Moral Status of Animals," she discusses her capabilities theory of justice in the areas of human disabilities rights, cross-national jurisdictions, and animal rights. By being too slow reading it, I missed a live, online discussion of animals' moral status today. The article takes off from Prof. Nussbaum's new book, Frontiers of Justice: Disability, Nationality, Species Membership from Harvard University Press.
