Abstract

Ethics is not only a matter of convenience, but a condition of survival in society. The lack of moral values seems to afflict the current social tissue, according to critics. As a cancer that spreads in the body, amorality destroys the climate of trust that should guide social relationships, leading to sometimes unsustainable situations. Beyond a certain point, jungle law begins to be the only possible rule for social and economic relationships. Of the many available ways to find the importance of ethical values, the bitterest is that of experience. But the goal of responsibility toward the future is what mostly moves forward citizens and corporations and government leaders. This book focuses on many aspects to help understand ethics and responsibilities in a globalizing world.
