What duties do the global affluent have towards the global poor? This book offers a philosophical inquiry into the effective altruist's answer. According to effective altruism, the global affluent have a duty to assist the global poor cost-effectively. I argue that there are two ways in which effective altruism fails to account for the moral imperative of Do No Harm. First, it fails to account for our negative duties.
