This book is an inquiry into the extent to which human
relationships are foundational in morality. J. Kellenberger seeks
to discover, first, how relationships between persons, and
ultimately the relationship that each person has to each person by
virtue of being a person, underlie the various traditional
components of morality--obligation, virtue, justice, rights, and
moral goods--and, second, how relationship morality is more fully
consonant with our moral experience than other forms of human
morality.
Kellenberger traces the implications of relationship morality
for an understanding of religious duty to God and for the status of
our obligations to animals. He also examines issues relating to a
feminist "ethics of caring." While this book is a work in ethics,
its approach is not limited to an examination of theories of
obligation, such as utilitarianism, nor is it limited to the
traditional areas covered by wider philosophical treatments of
ethics. It embraces these but examines such moral categories as
love, respect for persons, shame, and their place in morality.
