This book draws a connection between ethics and research across social sciences, philosophy, medical sciences and legal sciences, and demonstrates that any research activity needs to be conducted by means of rules deriving from the field of ethics. Although having a common core, such rules assume different characteristics depending on the branch of science, as the contributions on philosophy, medicine, dentistry, law, biotechnology, robotics and architecture highlight. It also investigates the more complex ethical concerns and places them in a larger, technological context. Starting with an introduction to common-sense ethical principles, the contributions then guide the reader, helping them develop and understand a comprehensive knowledge on the field. Notably, it appeared interesting to analyze recent events related to the arrival of the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic in light of ethical principles, highlighting in what terms their applicability can still be confirmed. Moreover, the book makes these topics accessible to a non-expert audience, while also offering alternative reading pathways to inspire more specialized readers.

In this book, German philosopher Julian Nida-Rümelin presents a theory of practical reason that is objectivist, or rather realist, as an alternative to the widespread subjectivism in the theory of rationality. This theory has pragmatic traits that can be read as a constructive counterpart to Nida-Rümelin's critique of consequentialism whilst embedding its conception of rationality in the conceptual framework of decision and game theory.

Van hr-professionals wordt niet alleen verwacht dat zij zich kritisch en onderzoekend kunnen opstellen. Kunnen nadenken en discussiëren over verschillende morele waarden in ethische kwesties is net zo belangrijk. Morele dilemma's zijn onderdeel van hun dagelijkse werk. Hr-professionals zijn voortdurend bezig met het afwegen van verschillende waarden: die van de medewerkers en die van de organisatie.Ethiek en Human Resource Management helpt (toekomstige) hr-professionals om de ethische uitdagingen in de hr-praktijk te benaderen vanuit verschillende perspectieven en draagt bij aan hun ethische vorming; een praktijkgericht onderwijsboek dat aansluit bij het opleidingsprofiel van LOO-HRM 2020+.Het boek start met deel 1, dat bestaat uit twee hoofdstukken en een interview over het belang van waardencommunicatie, kritisch denken en meervoudig kijken, denken en handelen. Deel twee bestaat uit zeven hoofdstukken waarin diverse auteurs, elk vanuit een ander perspectief, de aan verandering onderhevige hr-praktijk beschrijven en de daarmee gepaard gaande morele dilemma's. Zij benoemen, aan de hand van het morele dilemma, verschillende theoretische kaders die hr-professionals kunnen toepassen in de praktijk. Aan bod komen onderwerpen als: de rol van hr-professionals bij werkgeluk en re-integratietrajecten, de betekenis van morele moed voor hr-professionals, het omgaan met de psychologische druk van ethische dilemma's en de invloed van de verhouding tussen mens en technologie in de organisatie.In het boek staan opdrachten voor hr-studenten en tips voor het handelen in de hr-praktijk.

"Per Bauhn's book presents an original argument about animal rights and is stronger than most of the other arguments presented in the field. Bauhn situates the origin of rights claims in general (including humans) and sets out the structure of all such arguments. Because of the rigor and originality of Bauhn's argument, it will become a topic of conversation within academic circles. This is a must read for those teaching Animal Rights or Environmental Ethics classes. It also sets out a fundamental argument that will stimulate other researchers to take account of this position. Highly recommended." -Michael Boylan, Professor of Philosophy, Marymount University, USA In this book, Per Bauhn does three things. First, he outlines some aspects of contemporary philosophical views on animals and morality, including the criticism of speciesism and the animal rights argument. Second, he criticizes these views, arguing that we cannot escape a speciesist perspective on morality, and that there are no good reasons why we should believe that non-human animals have moral rights. Third, he argues that cruelty against non-human animals is morally wrong, but not because animal rights are being violated but because human agents who inflict cruelty on non-human animals are failing their duty to develop in themselves the virtue of justice. This latter argument is reminiscent of Immanuel Kant's idea that we have only indirect duties towards animals, but unlike that idea, Bauhn's argument does not depend on any causal hypothesis that humans who are cruel to animals are likely to be cruel also to their fellow humans. Instead, Bauhn's argument relies on the fact that being cruel to non-human animals and other innocent beings is conceptually and logically inconsistent with the virtue of justice - a virtue which agents are rationally required to develop in themselves. Per Bauhn is Emeritus Professor of Practical Philosophy at Linnaeus University, Sweden.
