    Garrett Hardin: Lifeboat Ethics

    Garrett Hardin argues for a very harsh thesis: we simply should not provide aid to people in poor countries. His argument is consequentialist: he claims that the net result of doing so would be negative -- would in fact be courting large-scale disaster. One of the things that we will notice about Hardin's essay, however, is that whether he is right or wrong, he paints with a very broad brush. This makes it a good

    When people do things it is usually for their self-interest no matter how you want to put it. In some cases it is not good to act in your own self-interest but in the interest of others.

They are also different because being selfish ties more into personal egoism. I believe

    Ethics

    The question of "right and wrong" has fueled a debate between great philosophical minds for centuries. What designates something as "right" and something else as "wrong"? Is there a so-called ultimate moral principle that human beings should obey? Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill present different philosophies regarding this fundamental issue, which inevitably beg to ask the question of what ultimately guides a person's moral choices. Kant asserts that ethical decisions are based on a

    In the world that I come from, socialism was the rule of the day until fairly recently. Among other things, my country looked upon private enterprise with a high degree of suspicion for which it has since been duly discredited. One central theme was suspicion about the moral aspects of business. Probably with some justification! For instance, I was grieved to learn that several credit card companies had appointed local mafias to collect unpaid bills.

    For most organizations, values statements are simply rhetoric that sits on a fancy plaque on the wall. The real values are seen in the halls, not on the walls. High performing organizations are clear about their values and about what they translate into in day-to-day behavior. They use their values strategically, to guide every decision and action. The challenge with values is that they are usually vague concepts that have different meanings to different people.
