Klappentext zu „Sustainability Ethics and Sustainability Research “
The book provides a philosophical contribution to the discussion of sustainability. It develops a distinct approach of sustainability ethics and suggests a new type of sustainability research. The book refers to the inherent ethical meaning of the modern concept of sustainability. It argues that without an adequate recognition and analysis of this ethical meaning the concept of sustainability is misunderstood and sustainability issues cannot be adequately approached.
The book identifies the specific ethical aspects of sustainability and develops ethical tools to analyze them. It also provides a methodological framework to integrate ethical and scientific analyses of sustainability issues, and develops the conception of a new type of self-reflective inter- and transdisciplinary sustainability research. With this, the book aims to strengthen the overall ability of academics to contribute to the analysis and solution of sustainability issues in an encompassing and integratedway.
