Encyclopaedia of Ethics

Christoph Horn Maximilian Forschner Otfried Höffe Wilhelm Vossenkuhl

A revised and extended new edition of the standard work

Ethical problems in politics and industry, ecology and medicine are rapidly becoming more pressing, and some are the subject of heated public debate. This classic encyclopaedia is an informative but also critical guide to these problems. Expert authors explain all the important terms, schools of thought and traditions. They put them into context, introduce the underlying issues and highlight difficulties and possible solutions.

Since it was first published in 1977, the encyclopaedia itself has changed many times to keep pace with developments in our ethical debates and orientations. It has been thoroughly revised for this eighth edition. Many entries – including those on abortion, discrimination, ways of life, solidarity, technology, conservation and renunciation – have been updated, and important new entries have been added, including on volunteering, the limitations of ethics, artificial intelligence, intersexuality, conservatism, sustainability, the public sphere, populism, the ethics of taxes, and trust.


*A completely updated edition of the classic encyclopaedia

*With entries on many new subjects, such as:

Volunteering

Artificial intelligence
