Zusammenfassung:Political ethics, a subfield of applied (or practical) ethics, is concerned with normative questions about voters, politicians, lobbyists, and other individual political agents. Compared with other fields in applied ethics (such as biomedical ethics and business ethics) political ethics has not developed into an area of intense interest in academic philosophy. Debates over the main questions in political ethics occur in mainstream news, on social media, in living rooms and neighborhood bars, etc., but for the most part have not bled over into the pages of philosophy journals and books. This volume aims to (begin to) fill this gap in the philosophical literature. It contains eighteen original papers by a diverse range of leading scholars on central questions in political ethics
