on Character Formation, Ethical Education, and the Communication of Values in Late Modern Pluralistic Societies
Michael Welker | Eva Winkler | John Witte, Jr. | Stephen Pickard (Eds.)
Pluralism has become the defining characteristic of modern societies. However, institutions and their norms profoundly shape our moral commitments and character – notably the family, the market, the media, and systems of law, religion, politics, research, education, health care, and defense.
In the theoretical, empirical, and historical contributions to this volume, specialists on medicine, medical ethics, psychology, theology and health care discuss the many challenges that major transformations in their areas of expertise pose to the communication and orientation in late modern pluralistic societies. Contributors come from Germany, the USA and Australia.
