... As Kantian philosopher Alan Donagan pointed out, "the notion that an autonomous being is one having the power to do as it likes is a vulgarity" (Hooker and Kim, 2019, p. 3). In general, while humans do not bear direct obligations towards animals due to their nonpersonhood, they do possess indirect responsibilities towards them (Kant, 2016).

... However, in terms of the scope of this study, the closest literature to the study is the literature on democratic peace theory. This approach, which dates back to Immanuel Kant and later Woodrow Wilson (Kant, 1795;Marine Corps University, 2017), argues that democratic countries tend to fight each other less. Longley (2022) summarizes the propositions of the democratic peace theory as follows: In democracies, citizens have a say in legislative decisions and can hold their leaders accountable, leaders tend to establish diplomatic institutions in the face of international tensions and democracies rarely see countries similar to themselves as enemies, and democracies tend to protect their wealth. ...

... Important example of this approach include natural duty of justice theories. 6 They argue that we often need to coordinate our actions through institutions in order to discharge our independent -natural -moral duties not to harm or subject others (Kant 1991, Stilz 2009 or to rescue them from great peril (Wellman 1996). In either case, it becomes morally mandatory, according to natural duty theorists, to 'support and comply with just institutions' and to 'further just ...
