Description
English summary: In this collection of essays, Karl Homann outlines the foundations for the ethics of the future. The ethics of the 21st century has to be based on advantages and incentives, since in the age of globalization there is no other conceivable basis for ethics. It is to be expected that every one of us is going to pursue his own interests and that the only way to achieve improvements is by creating incentives. Ethical problems are changing, and the emphasis for solving them is on institutional reforms. In order to deal with these problems, ethics has to work together with the social sciences, in particular with economics. A collaboration of this nature is discernible in this volume and is exemplified by ethical and methodological questions. German description: Karl Homann entwickelt in den hier zusammengestellten Aufsatzen die Grundlagen fur eine Ethik der Zukunft. Eine solche Ethik fur das 21. Jahrhundert muss sich auf Vorteile und Anreize grunden, da im Zeitalter der Globalisierung keine andere Basis fur die Ethik mehr denkbar ist. Es ist damit zu rechnen, dass jeder seinen Vorteil verfolgt, und deshalb konnen Verbesserungen nur durch die Gestaltung von Anreizen erreicht werden. Die Probleme der Ethik verandern sich: Institutionelle Reformen stehen im Mittelpunkt. Um diese Probleme anzugehen, muss die Ethik mit den Wissenschaften zusammenarbeiten, insbesondere mit der Okonomik. Diese Zusammenarbeit macht Karl Homann anhand von ethischen und methodologischen Fragestellungen sichtbar. (Description from external book data)
