Zusammenfassung: | While complex global problems cry out for solutions devised with moral sensitivity & responsibility, a more common mentality tends to prevail, one that assumes those going the right way ('us') are endangered by others ('them') going the wrong way. Steven Fesmire calls this approach 'moral fundamentalism,' the idea that only we have access to the right diagnosis & prescription to our problems. Moral fundamentalism causes us to oversimplify, neglect broader context, take refuge in dogmatic absolutes, ignore possibilities, assume privileged access to the right way to proceed, & shut off honest inquiry. Moral fundamentalism also makes the worst of native impulses toward social bonding & antagonism. This depletes social capital & makes it impossible to debate & achieve superordinate goals, such as public health, justice, security, sustainability, peace, & democracy. |
