Oltre l'umano: la giustizia nel mondo animale.

does the idea of justice make sense only in the human world? Can it make sense also in the world of non-human animals? Put another way, is there scope for justice in the animal world, or is it simply a "might is right" world? Starting from recent research of ethologists, philosophers, psychologists, and jurists, we will reflect on the hypothesis of the existence of an "animal justice" -- through the identification of three possible contexts of justice in the animal world (distributive justice, ludic fairness, retributive justice) and the analysis of a famous experiment on justice among monkeys. This research allows us to explore the axiological dimension of the hypothetical deontic world of nonhuman animals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
