Developed by D. Don Welch during his 28 years of teaching ethics
and public policy, the rationale behind A Guide to Ethics and
Public Policy is to present a comprehensive guide for making policy
judgments. Rather than present specific cases that raise moral
issues or discuss the role a few concepts play in the moral
analysis of policy, this book instead provides a broad framework
for the moral evaluation of public policies and policy proposals.
This framework is organized around guiding five principles:
benefit, effectiveness, fairness, fidelity, and legitimacy. These
principles identify the factors that should be taken into account
and the issues that should be addressed as citizens address the
question of what the United States government should be able to do.
Organized by concept, with illustrations and examples frequently
interspersed, the book covers both theory and specific issues. A
Guide to Ethics and Public Policy outlines a comprehensive ethical
framework, provides content to the meaning of the five principles
that comprise that framework through the use of illustrations and
examples, and offers guidance about how to navigate one's way
through the conflicts and dilemmas that inevitably result from a
serious effort to analyze policies.
