DESCRIPTION:Are many short lives just as good as one long life? Applied to 
 animals\, the controversial “replaceability argument” (Singer 1993) cla
 ims that they are. In this paper\, we identify the conditions on the social
  welfare function and individual lifetime utilities under which such welfar
 e equivalence holds\, and more generally\, when replacing a long life with 
 short lives increases or decreases social welfare. Our results show that re
 placeability is favored under several circumstances\, including higher per-
 period utility levels\, stronger inequality aversion\, and lower critical l
 evels. This analysis thus clarifies when social welfare is\, or is not\, be
 tter advanced by extending existing lives rather than creating new ones. It
  also helps define and assess the value of existence.\\n\\nContact: Yajna G
