A positive case for cultivated meat

Author:

Abstract

AbstractWe need a positive vision of the place of animals in the production of cultivated meat. Drawing on critiques of cultivated meat, this chapter identifies three virtues that, ideally, a cultivated meat industry could realize: respect for animals; diffusion of power; and respect for meat’s assorted values. Cultivated meat needs ‘donor’ animals as the source of cells. Two existing models of the place of donor animals are ‘pig in the backyard’ and ‘mail-order cells’. Both could find a place in the zoopolis, but fail to live up to the virtues identified. The chapter offers a third, complementary, model: ‘donor’ animals could live on farms, where they would have workers’ rights. The chapter closes by considering a range of objections: Could we farm animals for corpses? How generalizable is the model? Would retaining farms be a bad thing? How many animals would the industry need? Is this a pipe dream?
