Document Details : Title: Workshop on Greenpeace and the Agriculture Industry Author(s): Journal: Ethical Perspectives Volume: 7 Issue: 2-3 Date: September 2000 Pages: 168-174 DOI: 10.2143/EP.7.2.503803 Abstract : Ethicists and political scientists are increasingly convinced that the moral legitimacy of political decisions is rooted in the quality of the social dialogue that precedes those decisions. A broad-based social consideration and discussion creates the form to examine and to refine options and visions and assures a general respect for commonly arrived decisions. In order to enable such consideration and discussion, it would seem essential that as many people and interest groups as possible be provided adequate information so that they can proceed in a nuanced fashion in their discussions. |
