Will MacAskill Professore Associato in Filosofia e Ricercatore presso il Global Priorities Institute, Università di Oxford. La mia ricerca accademica si concentra sui fondamenti di un altruismo efficace: l'uso delle prove e della ragione per aiutare gli altri il più possibile con il nostro tempo e denaro, con una particolare concentrazione su come agire data l'incertezza morale.
il Direttore della Forethought Foundation for Global Priorities Research, un co-fondatore e il Presidente del Center for Effective Altruism (CEA) e io abbiamo contribuito a creare il movimento dell'altruismo efficace. Attraverso Giving What We Can, CEA incoraggia le persone a impegnarsi a donare almeno il 10% del proprio reddito agli enti di beneficenza più efficaci. CEA gestisce anche oltre 100 gruppi locali sull'altruismo efficace, ospita regolarmente conferenze sull'altruismo efficace e fa ricerca su politiche ad alto impatto e opportunità filantropiche.
ha anche co-fondato 80.000 Hours, un'organizzazione no-profit sostenuta da YCombinator che fornisce ricerche e consigli su come puoi fare la differenza nella tua carriera.

Descrizione di Il libro

What We Owe the Future pdf da William MacAskill

This book will change your sense of how grand the sweep of human history could be, where you fit into it, and how much you could do to change it for the better. It’s as simple, and as ambitious, as that.” —Ezra Klein
An Oxford philosopher makes the case for “longtermism” — that positively influencing the long-term future is a key moral priority of our time.
The fate of the world is in our hands. Humanity’s written history spans only five thousand years. Our yet-unwritten future could last for millions more — or it could end tomorrow. Astonishing numbers of people
could lead lives of great happiness or unimaginable suffering, or never live at all, depending on what we choose to do today.
In What We Owe The Future, philosopher William MacAskill argues for longtermism, that idea that positively influencing the distant future is a key moral priority of our time. From this perspective, it’s not enough to reverse climate change or avert the next pandemic. We must ensure that civilization would rebound if it collapsed; counter the end of moral progress; and prepare for a planet where the smartest beings are digital, not human.
If we make wise choices today, our grandchildren’s grandchildren will thrive, knowing we did everything we could to give them a world full of justice, hope and beauty.
