La science des mœurs, la morale - et l'éthique qui les fonde - ont orienté l'activité sociologique dès son commencement. Celle présentation procède à un bref rappel des positions théoriques. Elle est surtout destinée à montrer comment s'exprime et se traduit en pratique, aujourd'hui, la demande d'éthique. Elle souligne le fait que c'est la définition de l'homme, dans la modernité actuelle, qui reste en attente de précision. rom its very beginning, sociological research has been orientated towards the study of behavioural patterns, morals -and the ethics upon which they are based. This article briefly recalls a number of theoretical points of view. It is mainly intended to demonstrate how the demand for ethics is today finding its expression and its practical application. It underlines the fact that it is the definition of man, in the present modernity, which is still needing to be further specified.

Many of our interactions in the twenty-first century - both good and bad - take place by means of institutions, technology, and artefacts. We inhabit a world of implements, instruments, devices, systems, gadgets, and infrastructures. Technology is not only something that we make, but is also something that in many ways makes us. The discipline of ethics must take this constitutive feature of institutions and technology into account; thus, ethics must in turn be embedded in our institutions and technology. The contributors to this book argue that the methodology of 'designing in ethics' - addressing and resolving the issues raised by technology through the use of appropriate technological design - is the way to achieve this integration. They apply their original methodology to a wide range of institutions and technologies, using case studies from the fields of healthcare, media and security. Their volume will be important for philosophical practitioners and theorists alike.
