Abstract
The article is intended to introduce the reader to the historical and polemical contexts of the seminal essay “Famine, Affluence and Morality” (1972) by Peter Singer, which appears in Russian for the first time. The authors analyze Singer's argumentation in the perspective of the development of his views, determine the relevant historical and philosophical context of the paper, and outline the key lines of criticism of Singer's approach. This allows us to look more closely at the problem of global poverty and the individual moral obligations of affluent agents.
