Business Ethics: Privacy
本稿は,義務論的倫理学の視点から社会の中にある道徳基準について概観し,ビジネス環境におけるプライバシーの重要性について論証することを目的としている。ビジネス環境においては,模範的な人でさえプライバシーを侵害する可能性は否めない。本論では,多様な視点からプライバシーについて詳述するため,たとえば9月11日のテロ事件後にアメリカで起きた個人情報に関する事例等も用いている。義務論的倫理学の中で取り扱われる道徳原理を軸とした場合,個人のプライバシーを守ることは最重要課題であるといえるだろう
Tragic Choices in Ideological Battles: Gay Rights Versus Religious Freedom
A major domestic issue in the United States today is the battle between gay rights and religious liberty. It is an issue often framed as a zero-sum battle where one side must lose and be faced with a tragic choice. Thus far, it has only been religious individuals who believe marriage is only supposed to be between men and women, and who act on this belief who have been made to make this choice.

Upon these indubitable rocks would be built an edifice of knowledge enduring forever
Differential Sentencing Patterns among Felony Sex Offenders and Non-Sex Offenders
More than thirty years ago, commentators noted that there is doubtless no subject on which one can obtain more definite opinions and less definite knowledge than in the area of the sentencing of sex offenders.1 The literature is no less deficient today. There are numerous assertions to the effect that sex offenders receive draconian penalties2 while certain feminist theorists maintain that sex offenders receive overly lenient treatment.3 In both cases, however, the unanswered question is, In relation to what
