Working Ethics: Strategies for Decision Making and Organizational ResponsibilityJossey-Bass Publishers, 1990 - 219 sivua Drawing on his experience of teaching adults and consulting work on the process of ethical reflection, Brown notes that the purpose of ethics is not to make people better, but rather to help them make better decisions. This approach views persons and their organizations not as "black boxes" to be controlled or manipulated from without, but rather as responsible moral agents capable of raising questions, evaluating policies, and providing reasons to justify their actions. Disagreement is virtually necessary for ethical reflection since each person and group can suffer from biases that prevent relevant questions from emerging. Brown shows how communicating openly about values, assumptions, and policies can improve the ultimate decision. He concludes that humans and their organizations can be empowered to make fairer decisions that respect the rights of all parties. ISBN 1-55542-280-2: $25.95. |
