Onora O’Neill and Peter Singer both argue that affluent people and countries have substantial obligations to those people who are faring worst, such as in situations of famine. However, O’Neill and Singer make very different arguments, and as a result they disagree about the nature of our obligations: to allow and sustain people’s autonomy (O’Neill), or to reduce suffering as much as we can (Singer).
