Abstract

Moral relativism attracts and repels. What is defensible in it and what is to be rejected? Do we as human beings have no shared standards by which we can understand one another? Can we abstain from judging one another's practices? Do we truly have divergent views about what constitutes good and evil, virtue and vice, harm and welfare, dignity and humiliation, or is there some underlying commonality that trumps it all? These questions turn up everywhere, from Montaigne's essay on cannibals, to the UN Declaration of Human Rights, to the debate over female genital mutilation. They become ever more urgent with the growth of mass immigration, the rise of religious extremism, the challenges of Islamist terrorism, the rise of identity politics, and the resentment at colonialism and the massive disparities of wealth and power between North and South. Are human rights and humanitarian interventions just the latest form of cultural imperialism? By what right do we judge particular practices as barbaric? Who are the real barbarians? In this provocative new book, the distinguished social theorist Steven Lukes takes an incisive and enlightening look at these and other challenging questions and considers the very foundations of what we believe, why we believe it, and whether there is a profound discord between "us" and "them."

Abstract

A l'heure de la « grande démission », ce livre s'attache à apporter une réponse solide à la question : dans quelles conditions les fonctions de management peuvent-elles s'exercer en ayant un effet humanisant sur les personnes au travail ? Dans la suite de Éthique et philosophie du management (Erès, 2016), où il explorait les grandes lignes d'un management recherchant le consentement des collaborateurs, au-delà de la simple obéissance hiérarchique, l'auteur s'intéresse à présent à l'influence que le management exerce en tant que processus de socialisation des collaborateurs. Il se demande comment cette influence peut humaniser et émanciper, au lieu de déshumaniser et d'infantiliser, et contribuer à former des citoyens responsables et participatifs. Mettant à profit sa longue pratique, il s'attache à repenser le management pour qu'il contribue efficacement aux trois grandes fonctions d'une organisation de travail : produire, coopérer, innover. Ces trois grands axes qui constituent un enjeu politique à l'échelle de l'entreprise comme de la société, structurent l'ouvrage dans un dialogue constant entre sciences humaines et philosophieA l'heure de la « grande démission », ce livre s'attache à apporter une réponse solide à la question : dans quelles conditions les fonctions de management peuvent-elles s'exercer en ayant un effet humanisant sur les personnes au travail ?

Abstract

Wenn etwas wirklich neu ist, geschieht es oft, dass wir nicht wissen, was zu tun gut wäre, was schlecht oder böse. Ähnlich verhält es sich in tragischen Situationen. Beide Fälle führen leicht zum Nachdenken, dieses wiederum kann schließlich die Form moralphilosophischen Überlegens annehmen. Stellt man solche Überlegungen an, legt sich die Idee eines ethischen Systems fast von selbst nahe. Was aber könnte für ein solches System den Grundsatz liefern? - Hier greifen viele Philosophen auf sogenannte „Intuitionen“ zurück. - Warum das vielleicht keine so gute Idee ist, aber dennoch das Beste, was man tun kann, soll in diesem Buch untersucht werden. Dabei kommen eine Reihe von Themen zur Sprache, wie etwa das Gewissen oder die Rolle moderner wissenschaftlicher Methoden für die Moralphilosophie.

Abstract

This work systematically compiles eleven outstanding research papers that were presented at the 3rd International Congress on Ethics in Cuenca, University City, Ecuador in November 2022. The Catholic University of Cuenca, beyond hosting the event, is committed to ethics in a holistic way. As such, to deliver this work for the benefit of the community is to expand the debate on it in areas of collective relevance such as face-to-face and online university education, pre-professional practices, professional qualifications, the equity of women workers, nature as a subject of rights, professional conduct, Ethics in Care Committees, the trend, style, and praxis of architectural design, and particularly the role of the university in the construction of an ethical culture from the perspective of students. Thus, this book invites those attending the event and readers to empower themselves with the work in order to strengthen ethics in all its dimensions and in everyday practice.

Abstract

In an age in which preference has replaced morality, many people find it difficult to speak the truth, afraid of the reactions they will receive if they say something is right or wrong. Using engaging stories and personal experience, Edward Sri helps us understand the classical view of morality and equips us to engage relativism, appealing to both the head and the heart. Learn how Catholic morality is all about love, why making a judgment is not judging a person's soul, and why, in the words of Pope Francis, "relativism wounds people." Topics include:• Real Freedom, Real Love• Sharing truth with compassion• Why "I disagree" doesn't mean "I hate you"
