Peter Singer is an Australian moral philosopher, currently the Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University and a distinguished chair professor at SKKU. He is widely known for his writings such as ‘Practical Ethics’ and ‘Animal Liberation’ and his lectures on ‘The Most Good You Can Do.’ In addition, he has published more than 50 books, including ‘The Ethics of What We Eat’, ‘Why Vegan?’ and ‘Ethics in the Real World’, and has been translated into 25 languages. He specialises in applied ethics and approaches ethical issues from a secular, utilitarian perspective. In his writing ‘Practical Ethics’, he argued for the practice of animal rights, abortion, and polarization by incorporating utilitarianism into specific and everyday issues. In 2012 Singer was made a Companion of the Order of Australia, the nation’s highest civic honor. He founded the charity The Life You Can Save and is a founding co-editor of the Journal of Controversial Ideas. In 2021, he was awarded the Berggruen Prize for Philosophy and Culture.
