Varieties of Ethical Reflection brings together new cultural and
religious perspectives-drawn from non-Western, primarily Asian,
philosophical sources-to globalize the contemporary discussion of
theoretical and applied ethics. The work pushes ethics beyond a
Western philosophical tradition tending toward universalism to
infuse and broaden modern ethical theory with relativistic Asian
ethical principles. The contributors introduce multicultural
concepts and ideas from the Chinese Taoist, Confucian and
Neo-Confucian, Indian and East Asian Buddhist, and Hindu
traditions, focusing on such areas of moral controversy as the
clash between women's rights and culture; universal human rights;
abortion and euthanasia in a non-Western setting; and the
standardization of medical practice across cultures.
