Foundational. 2.2.2 Relational
Foundational. As previously mentioned, determination of which entities meet the criteria for dignity has been strongly debated in applied ethics, moral philosophy, and theology, among other disciplines. Human history is riddled with instances of the denial of the humanness of individuals considered ‘the other’, including the disabled, women, and minorities, among other groups.77 The denial of the dignity of these individuals has allowed for the denial of moral protections and moral rights entitled to dignified beings.78 Most individuals would agree that human lives are valuable. However, the properties that are adequate to determine which lives are valuable should be discussed in order to understand and defend why they are valuable and why respect is due to all human beings.

This is similar to the Kantian view as it is also based in rationality. However, while one of the downfalls of the Kantian view, mentioned in section 2.1.1, was that it excluded a number of individuals due to their reduced rational capacity, this theory of dignity differs greatly as it covers all individuals of the species rather than just those who possess rational capacity themselves. As human being, in general, possess a rational nature, this natural capacity, regardless of extent utilized or exercised, distinguishes the grounds for dignity in all human beings.81 Thus, those human beings who do not exercise rational capacity, such as neonates and other previously excluded groups, are still dignified beings. Similarly to the dominant Christian view, dignity is defined as foundational as it inherent to all human beings, and it i...
