Zusammenfassung

Pluralismus ist zum bestimmenden Merkmal vieler moderner Gesellschaften geworden. Nicht nur eine Vielzahl individueller und sozialer Ansprüche und Aktivitäten wirkt sich auf das gesellschaftliche Leben aus. Ein kreativer Pluralismus von Institutionen und ihren Normen prägt unsere moralischen Verpflichtungen und unseren Charakter - insbesondere die Familie, der Markt, die Medien und die Systeme von Recht, Religion, Politik, Forschung, Bildung, Gesundheitswesen und Verteidigung. In den theoretischen, empirischen und historischen Beiträgen dieses Bandes erörtern Fachleute aus den Bereichen Medizin, Medizinethik, Psychologie, Theologie und Gesundheitswesen die vielfältigen Herausforderungen, die die tiefgreifenden Veränderungen in ihren Fachgebieten für die Kommunikation und Orientierung in spätmodernen pluralistischen Gesellschaften mit sich bringen. Die Autorinnen und Autoren kommen aus Deutschland, den USA und Australien.

Abstract

Pluralism has become the defining characteristic of many modern societies. Not only a plurality of individual and social claims and activities gain impacts on societal life. A creative pluralism of 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.
