Holmes, Peter John. "Karl Barth's social philosophy 1918-1933." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2001. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/1294/.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
This thesis is a contribution to the contemporary reassessment of Karl Barth's social philosophy. A close reading of the English translation of the text of a series of posthumously published lectures on ethics which Barth gave in the universities of Münster and Bonn between 1929 and 1933 is the basis of the work. Previous literature includes no discussion of the lectures. The thesis argues that the lectures show the foundation of Barth's thinking both of theology as a science and of ethics as a part of dogmatics, and that his subsequent work developed these ideas.

The Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act and its subsequent backlash serve as a case-study to raise ethical concerns both about the characterization of contemporary western liberal democracy as a political theory and a prevailing religious extremism acting as a legislative power within governments; Developing and reflecting on these issues this study will attempt to show a need to evaluate the moral principles attributed to modern political systems and the governmental delineation of power over individuals within a society.

Résumé :
The knowledge base of empirical psychology is more expansive than ever before. So too is the impulse to integrate this factual knowledge into political theory. But how should this psychological turn be undertaken? What would a political psychology for political theorists look like? How could psychology credibly tackle the questions that political theorists characteristically ask, especially regarding the nature and consequences of prescriptive political judgment? In this thesis, I explore this issue through the framework of recent debates between political moralists—specifically, John Rawls, G

In this thesis, the claim that a flourishing family life should be characterised as a social practice, according to Alasdair MacIntyre’s definition of a practice, is defended. Furthermore, it is argued that the social practice of making and sustaining family life pursues certain goods, the achievement of which are constitutive of the family’s flourishing. The argument proceeds through the following stages. In the first part I focus on the Aristotelian premises of the argument and set out MacIntyre’s theoretical framework.

Ethical breaches in many organizations can be traced to failures in ethical leadership, which undermine trust. If a leader's ethical behavior in their private life and settings is perceived as influencing workplace ethics, it may in turn affect organizational trust levels and the development of trust.

Counter-intuitively, South Africa maintains a social-political order that (re)produces this inequality along with great enthusiasm for ubuntu, an African ethic that at a minimum requires that we treat each other humanely.

This dissertation aims to defend an egalitarian conception of global distributive justice.

Résumé :
Comment aborder l'éthique médicale à l'heure de la grande confusion entre déontologie, morale, éthique, éthique de la biomédecine, éthique appliquée, éthique du care, méta-éthique, bioéthique...? Peut-être par un retour " aux choses mêmes " comme aurait dit Husserl, un retour à la médecine pour y chercher, comme nichée en son sein, matière à penser l'éthique de la médecine et non une éthique fabriquée de toute pièce qui constituerait, au final et de façon définitive, une éthique pour la médecine.Un mode d'exercice particulier, la médecine d'urgence, permet d'étudier l'acte médical, dans sa pui

Texte intégral
Résumé :
This work addresses to what extent businesses in the United States and the European Union have a moral obligation to participate in social integration processes in areas where they operate with the use of migrant laborers. It begins with the presupposition that a common framework as to what constitutes ethical behavior in business is needed and beneficial. It argues that the very industry that creates a need for migrant labor ought to also be involved in merging this labor successfully into the existing community and specifies that a discourse on business ethics and migration is gravely needed

Résumé :
L'accident vasculaire cérébral, est une pathologie aigüe et grave, qui peut conduire au décès rapide du patient ou à un handicap neurologique sévère, moteur et/ou cognitif. Dans les situations les plus sévères, l'action médicale amène à envisager des limitations ou arrêt de certains traitements si le pronostic s'avère " catastrophique ", signifiant le plus souvent le risque d'un handicap " inacceptable ".L'action médicale dans ces situations est particulièrement complexe. Elle pose la question de la finalité de l'acte médical au regard de la qualité de vie future du patient, qui suppose l'esti

Résumé :
The emergence of Human Rights NGOs continue to influence the practice of human rights domestically and internationally. In connection with this development, as scrutinizers of human rights and human rights violations, the Human Rights NGOs must in turn be scrutinized. Guided by a theoretical framework consisted of theories of justification by Rainer Forst, Martha Nussbaum and Michael Ignatieff, a critical analysis of how Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch reveal the state of human rights in the respective annual report of 2017 is carried out. The aim is to scrutinize how the Human Ri

Thesis (DPhil (Philosophy))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study commences with a critical, philosophical exploration of the ethical theories that constitute the normative basis of the dominant business ethics paradigm. It is argued that the universal and communitarian notions of the good upon which this paradigm is based, are inadequate in helping us deal with the complexities that define the modern day business environment. It is suggested that a sophisticated and affirmative account of postmodernism is a better suited alternative, as this paradigm is geare

Résumé :
The United Nation’s mandate to engineer international peacecraft is correlated with the promotion of universal human rights. Universal human rights are held to apply consistently to everyone everywhere without conceivable exception. There is some debate as to whether universal human rights possibly exist. This debate centers around two difficulties: 1) the task of identifying a single trait or capability that all human beings necessarily share, and 2) the task of relating human rights to this trait or capability.
