Description

IN "SAVING PEOPLE AND FLIPPING COINS," Ben Bradley offers an intriguing counterexample to the principle of equal greatest chance (EGC). (1) The principle of equal greatest chance is designed to apply in contexts of moral equivalence. Let A and B be morally equivalent just in case there is no greater moral reason to save A than there is to save B and vice versa. (2) Suppose a lifeguard can save A and can save B, but she cannot save both A and B. Bradley's formulation of the principle states the following: EGC. One must give each person the greatest possible chance of survival consistent with everyone else having the same chance.
