Arguments about ethics often centre on traditional questions of,
for instance, euthanasia and abortion. Whilst these questions are
still in the foreground, recent years have seen an explosion of new
moral problems. Moral and political clashes are now as likely to be
about sexuality and gender and the status of refugees, immigrants
and borders, or the ethics of social media, safe spaces, disability
and robo-ethics. How should we approach these debates? What are the
issues at stake? What are the most persuasive arguments? Edited by
best-selling philosophy author David Edmonds, Ethics and the
Contemporary World assembles a star-studded line-up of philosophers
to explore twenty-five of the most important ethical problems
confronting us today. They engage with moral problems in race and
gender, the environment, war and international relations, global
poverty, ethics and social media, democracy, rights and moral
status, and science and technology. Whether you want to learn more
about the ethics of poverty, food, extremism, or artificial
intelligence and enhancement, this book will help you understand
the issues, sharpen your perspective and, hopefully, make up your
own mind.
