ABSTRACT

The present text seeks to make a journey through an anthropocentric ethical proposal, in order to establish a type of moral bond that includes all rational agents, in the exercise of a moral act in favor of the environment and animals. For this purpose, a contractual ethical proposal based on several theoretical contributions of different contractarian authors is analyzed, defined and established in a particular way. To, subsequently, derive the so-called indirect moral responsibilities that fall on moral patients, which for this case are the animals and the environment, so that the existence of principles of moral action, which can be reasonably accepted by all parties, is confirmed contractual agents.
