Resumen

SUAREZ-RUIZ, E Joaquín. Environment, media, and moral psychology. On the potential of disciplinary convergence in a post-pandemic animal bioethics. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2021, n.52, pp.265-286.  Epub 25-Oct-2021. ISSN 1886-5887.  https://dx.doi.org/10.1344/rbd2021.52.32202.

Since the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, a striking social phenomenon has been taking place: in various parts of the world, groups of people proceeded to drive away and/or exterminate colonies of bats, assuming that such action would help to prevent possible infections when in fact it only made the situation worse. In order to analyse in depth such social phenomena, it is necessary to resort to diverse disciplines such as environmental ethics, media ethics and moral psychology. As will be argued in this article, one field of knowledge that favours the appropriate disciplinary convergence to address the complexity of problems such as the one mentioned, is a discipline that is generally not much visited in the productions linked to general bioethics and animal ethics, namely animal bioethics. In the conclusions of this article, it will be possible to show that this discipline not only contributes to the analysis of specific problems such as the current persecution of bats, but also that benefits from a critical approach of certain blind spots of the interrelated disciplines.

Palabras clave : COVID-19; animal bioethics; environmental ethics; media ethics; moral psychology; cognitive biases.
