内容説明・目次
内容説明
Ethics has become the burning issue of current moral philosophical thought. This is because it raises the spectre of responsibility at a time when responsibility seems entirely replaced by uncertainty and relativism. What is the place of individual choice and consequence in a post-Holocaust world of continuing genocidal ethnic cleansing? Is identity now a last-ditch cultural defence of ethnic nationalisms and competing fundamentalisms? What are the rights, self-interest and civic duties in a climate of instant information, free markets and possible ecological disaster? What are the acceptable limits of scientific investigation, genetic engineering, the rights and wrongs of animal rights, euthanasia and civil disobedience? Introducing Ethics confronts these perplexing ethical dilemmas and anxieties of human existence.
