Answer:
Lifeboat ethics is a metaphor of resource distribution, proposed by Garrett Hardin in 1974, that assumes that there are 100 people thrown into the sea when 50 people are already on a lifeboat that can physically ride up to 60 people.
Hardin stated that people who traveled in the lifeboat would be developed countries, and that those thrown into the sea would be a metaphor for developing countries. In this way, he exemplified that it was more beneficial for the developed countries to abandon the developing countries and give priority to the security of each country.
