Ethics and Applied Ethics

Vol 5, No 9 (2004) • Filosofia Unisinos - Unisinos Journal of Philosophy

Autor: Jovino Pizzi

Resumo:

The growing concern with ethics has promoted a turn within philosophy and consequently within ethics itself. Besides discussing the foundation, ethical reflection must also deal with the issue of application, as the two of them are equally important realms. Applied ethics is mirrored in the great ethical theories, and for this reason their application depends on a specific model and methodology, which casuistry attempts to delineate. Finally the article raises the question whether an ethics applied to the Latin American context is possible.
