situation ethics  

Définition

  • Situation ethics began in the 1940s and 1950s as a movement among Roman Catholic theologians who saw in the post-World War II environment a constellation of unique moral challenges that the traditions of law and casuistry were not equipped to address. Law and casuistry were tied to hierarchy and authority, and the experience of World War II showed how immoral following orders could be. [Source: Encyclopedia of Public Relations; Situation Ethics]
