Global Ethics and Moral Responsibility
The philosophy of Hans Jonas was widely influential in the late twentieth century, warning of the potential dangers of technological progress and its negative effect on humanity and nature. Jonas advocated greater moral responsibility and taking this as a starting point, this volume explores current ethical issues within the context of his philosophy. It considers the vital intersection between law and global ethics, covering issues related to technology and ethics, medical ethics, religion and environmental ethics. Examining different aspects of Hans Jonas’ philosophy and applying it to contemporary issues, leading international scholars and experts on his work suggest original and promising solutions to topical problems. This collection of articles revives interest in Hans Jonas’ ethical reasoning and his notion of responsibility. The book covers a wide range of areas and is useful to those interested in philosophy and theory of law, human rights, ethics, bioethics, environmental law, philosophy and theology as well as political theory and philosophy.

Conflicting Philosophies and International Trade Law
This book reveals how conflicting worldviews are at the root of public controversies on policy and trade issues.

Ultimately, the book is a manifesto for independent and critical research.

Stimmen unsere Bilder und Narrative von Gott, vom Menschen, von der Mitschöpfung noch? Muss das Verhältnis des Menschen zur Mitschöpfung, das Verständnis von Sünde und Erlösung neu gedacht werden? Welche Beiträge können alte und neue theologische Vorstellungen geben, um die Gegenwart so mitzugestalten, dass eine gute Zukunft für alles Leben möglich ist? Zu diesen Fragestellungen wurde im Juni 2021 eine große digitale theologische Tagung durchgeführt. Die Vorträge, die auf di...
