505 0  What is moral status and why does it matter? -- How is 
       moral status determined? -- Selecting criteria of moral 
       status -- Problems in applying a multicriterial approach -
       - Applying a multicriteria moral status test to adults and
       children -- Legal, policy, and moral implications of 
       children's superiority. 
520    "Are children of equal, lesser, or perhaps even greater 
       moral importance than adults? This work of applied moral 
       philosophy develops a comprehensive account of how adults 
       as moral agents ascribe moral status to beings - ourselves
       and others - and on the basis of that account identifies 
       multiple criteria for having moral status. It argues that 
       proper application of those criteria should lead us to 
       treat children as of greater moral importance than adults.
       This conclusion presents a basis for critiquing existing 
       social practices, many of which implicitly presuppose that
       children occupy an inferior status, and for suggesting how
       government policy, law, and social life might be different
       if it reflected an assumption that children are actually 
       of superior status"--|cProvided by publisher.
