| Abstract: | In this short essay I intend to refer to Arendt's concept of 'natality', which she expounds in her book The Human Condition, to argue against the distinction which Peter Singer makes between a human person and human non-person; with reference to his book Practical Ethics (1993) as being representative of preference-utilitarianism and consequentialism. |
