    Thesis: Misfortune and Moral Status

    One Sentence Thesis: I defend the claim that one’s moral status - that is, the degree to which morality weighs one’s interests - is a non-linear function of how much well-being that individual can possibly lose when one’s life is going poorly (i.e., one’s capacity for misfortune).
