Which philosophers/sociologists/economists/political theorists claim the above?
No self-serving, question begging mischaracterizations of their views, please..............
What evidence do we have that the ethics of pre-industrial thinkers like Aristotle will be [or even are] of any use whatsoever when the human species achieves material-institutional abundance with extremely complex technological systems? If such abundance is even achievable on a planet of 6+ billion.
Are geneticists/cell biologists who move from the US to Singapore to avoid ethical rules/polices regulating research practices unethical? And if so, which ethical theories support the claim?
