    decide what should be done since we are the ones with the power to help. So my overall normative principal is: Based on the situation we should try to choose the best overall outcome‚ but it’s up to us to decide what the best outcome is. In relation to famine I think that any aid given is good‚ but we are not obligated to give it.

    HISTORY – S10 SECOND LONG PAPER The 1876-1879 and 1896-1902 famines in India and China were some of the worst famines the world had ever seen up until that point in time (Rouse Lecture).

If the British and the Chinese governments had made simple changes in their policies regarding India and China‚ the results of the famine would not have been so catastrophic. In this paper I will analyze

    Famine‚ Affluence‚ and Morality Notes Peter Singer opens his argument by introducing the reader to a famine in Bengal setting up his first premise that starvation is bad (Singer 631-632). He then suggests for his second premise that if it is possible to stop something bad from happening‚ then we should do all we can to stop it as long as it does not cause something else just as bad to happen. Singer says that if everyone donated five pounds‚ then there would be sufficient funds to help relieve
