商品描述

This book explores an undeveloped area in postmodern thought: organizational ethics. Ethical debates and analyses usually focus on a particular act or action, an actor, and/or how a secular society should address any of those particular persons or events. In the Post Modern age, ethical decisions and policies are characterized by moral and cultural pluralism. However, there is a second factor that complicates ethical and policy decisions even further. This book argues that in the postmodern age ethical decisions often need to be understood as part of the decision making of organizations and bureaucracies. Organizational decisions often have direct bearing on the choices made by individuals. Two areas that exemplify postmodern issue are the areas of health care and education. For example the decision making of Admissions Officers in American higher education, are influenced by decisions that have been made by the university about the size of the class and the diversity of the class. Health Care organizations make policy decisions that affect every aspect of a patient's care from admission to treatment and the types of care that are or are not offered. Both education and health care are the object of the significant investment of resources, both areas are value laden in postmodern, pluralistic societies, and yet we do not have a comprehensive method to understand them or evaluate them. This book is of interest to bioethicists, physicians, nurses, health care policy students, educational policy experts, students and government regulators.

本書探討後現代思想中一個尚未發展的領域：組織倫理。倫理辯論和分析通常集中在特定的行為或行動、一個行為者，以及/或世俗社會應如何處理這些特定的人或事件。在後現代時代，倫理決策和政策的特徵是道德和文化的多元主義。然而，還有第二個因素使倫理和政策決策變得更加複雜。本書主張，在後現代時代，倫理決策往往需要被理解為組織和官僚決策的一部分。組織決策通常直接影響個體所做的選擇。兩個例子可以體現後現代問題的領域是醫療保健和教育。例如，美國高等教育中招生官的決策，受到大學關於班級規模和班級多樣性所做決策的影響。醫療保健組織做出的政策決策影響著患者護理的每一個方面，從入院到治療，以及提供或不提供的護理類型。教育和醫療保健都是資源重大投資的對象，這兩個領域在後現代的多元社會中充滿價值觀，但我們卻沒有一個全面的方法來理解或評估它們。本書對生物倫理學家、醫生、護士、醫療政策學生、教育政策專家、學生和政府監管者都具有興趣。
