<p>Due to the increasing rate of human’s economic activity and rapid population growth, twenty first century has seen an unprecedented environmental change. These changes have an unprecedented impact on climate, life-sustaining systems on the earth. Future generations are exposed to great harm by the way in which humans exploit environmental resources of the earth. There is a call among environmental ethicists to review human ethical relationship with the environment as to attain sustainable development for the now and the future generations. Hence, the essence of this paper is to discuss the anthropoholistic environmental ethics, sustainable development and the future Generations. This paper argues that humans need to strive for a new and more respectful relationship with the natural environment in other to attain sustainable development. Also, human obligations towards sustainable development for the future must find a firm basis in social ethics: those obligations have to do with our conception of a just society.</p>
The ability to use and develop certain periods of societal skills of using and developing information and communication technologies greatly influences the fate and uses of these technologies in the economic, political, social and cultural spheres of society in the developmental and democratic indices of the world. Today, institutions need important information and data to maintain an efficient and productive life. Likewise, digitalization of information and data reveals new management understandings. Organizations are changing organizational structures and using hierarchical structures more flexibly and more efficiently. However, the benefits of progressively non-confidentiality of data and information are increasing in different fields, of which many social and cultural cataclysms can also follow. In particular, inequality in society is caused by the mutilation of privacy and trust In the Digital era, virtual action loses value and raises ethical issues. The inability to develop appropriate ethical principles for the virtual society deepens the effect of these problems on society. In this study, ethical perspectives of public administration in the Digital age are positively or negatively related to the situation.
This work attempt to apply ethics to the field of administration. Philosophy, when analysed for its social nature have the potential of shaping the foundation of social nature and forming a more rational outcome. However, much as been said on the ethics of public administration, this work joins the discussion by analyzing several philosophical arguments concerning the ethics of public administration. This work restricts its scope to the application of the standard normative theories which has been advocated by a selected number of philosophers which this work holds in esteem. This research was carried out with the philosophical method of textual analysis.
Environmental Jurisprudence’s highest achievement is its codification of a change in ethics, and a legal recognition that both individual and governmental agency responsibility extend to the natural world. This article provides an overview of Environmental Jurisprudence as it relates to environmental ethics. It examines both the foundation of Environmental Jurisprudence as well as the concept of human rights. The article also critically discusses international environmental law from the perspective of human rights. This research concludes by arguing that despite the attempt made in the international regime for adding eco-centric values in environmental law, environmental jurisprudence to date has continued with anthropocentric ideas with all concerns for safeguarding the means of human survival.
A search for a philosophy of leadership has to begin with ontological and epistemological questions. The former deals with what leadership is and the latter is concerned with how one can know. Hence, this work engages in exploring the meaning, scope, and nature of leadership through the methods of analysing common words and metaphors of leadership in the Old Testament, particularly the Book of Deuteronomy. In addition, the research perspectives on the nature of leadership in the area of leadership studies are discussed to arrive at a more comprehensive understanding of the characteristics and functions of leadership. This article deals with the ethical values that lay the foundation for the leadership practices in Deuteronomy. In doing so, sources of moral courage will be discussed first, as people’s personal and corporate moral courage has to originate from certain concepts, which serve as a philosophical underpinning, driving leaders in the ethical directions of leadership practices. Next, leadership with a concern for people and ethics is discussed. The crux of the philosophy of Deuteronomy is that people should choose life by obeying the law of the Lord and avoid destruction that results from disobeying the law. Hence, leadership practices are there to create life or well-being for the people. Finally, there will be a study on how ethical practices shape society, with reference to Israelite society in the context of the narratives in the Book of Deuteronomy.
