Telic prioritarianism and disability discrimination

Carlos Soto

Economics and Philosophy, 2026, vol. 42, issue 3, _10

Abstract: I argue against John, Millum and Wasserman’s position that telic prioritarianism justifies morally acceptable discrimination against persons with disabilities. I propose alternative considerations that explain why disability discrimination in the lifesaving cases JMW discuss is morally problematic.
