Zusatztext 'The editors of this volume should be praised for a variety of reasons. First! for having assembled a set of contributions - themselves of a pluralist character combining both theory and application - that represent an important addition to the flourishing literature on practical reason in the era of globalization. Second! for the spirit in which the eleven chapters have been written - the spirit of scholarship of engagement for which moral commitment and cognitive interest are intertwined and mutually combine. In a world of morally pluralist societies this is no minor virtue.' Stefano Zamagni! University of Bologna! Italy 'This volume takes up the urgent! though widely ignored challenge of clarifying the nature of applied ethics and ventures into a novel foundation that seriously deals with moral pluralism and globalization. It provides a firm philosophical ground for all those who are concerned with and are working in applied ethics.' Georges Enderle! University of Notre Dame!
