We live in a time of human paradoxes. Scientific knowledge has reached a level of sophistication that permits understanding of the most arcane phenomena and yet religious fundamentalism dominates in many parts of the world. We witness the emergence of a civil, liberal constitutionalism in many regions of the world and yet ethnic violence threatens the lives and dignity of millions. And we live in a time of rapid economic and technological advance and yet several billions of people live in persistent debilitating poverty. In this book, Daniel Little dissects these paradoxes offering the clearest perspective on how best to approach international development.Using both empirical and philosophical approaches, Little provides a schematic acquaintance with the most important facts about global development at the turn of the twentieth century. In doing so, he explores what appear to be the most relevant moral principles and insights that ought to be invoked as we consider these facts and then draws conclusions about what sorts of values and goals ought to guide economic development in the twenty-first century.

Que signifie « mourir dans la dignité » ? La dignité est-elle affaire de convenance personnelle ? Doit-il y avoir une « exception d'euthanasie » ? À quoi servent les soins palliatifs ? La philosophie nous apprend-elle quelque chose sur la mort, sur la fin de vie ? Telles sont les principales questions, d'une actualité brûlante pour la plupart, auxquelles ce recueil apporte quelques éléments de réponse. L'auteur chemine en compagnie d'Épicure, de Kierkegaard, Levinas et bien d'autres. Qu'il analyse un avis du Comité national d'éthique ou expose la pensée de Jankélévitch, son propos reste accessible à « l'honnête homme ». Et prodigue une réflexion éclairée sur « l'impensable » de la mort. Paru avant la promulgation de la loi Clays-Leonetti, cet ouvrage apporte un regard philosophique sur ce sujet difficile. Jacques Ricot vous propose son ouvrage Penser la fin de vie, dans lequel il clarifie les notions fondamentales de finitude, souffrance, dignité et liberté.
