Sullivan and Kymlicka seek to provide an alternative to post-9/11
pessimism about the ability of serious ethical dialogue to resolve
disagreements and conflict across national, religious, and cultural
differences. It begins by acknowledging the gravity of the problem:
on our tightly interconnected planet, entire populations look for
moral guidance to a variety of religious and cultural traditions,
and these often stiffen, rather than soften, opposing moral
perceptions. How, then, to set minimal standards for the treatment
of persons while developing moral bases for coexistence and
cooperation across different ethical traditions? The Globalization
of Ethics argues for a tempered optimism in approaching these
questions. Its distinguished contributors report on some of the
most globally influential traditions of ethical thought in order to
identify the resources within each tradition for working toward
consensus and accommodation among the ethical traditions that shape
the contemporary world.
