Am I Right? or Am I Right? gives you the opportunity to think about the ways in which the choices you make matter to yourself and others. The emphasis is on the need to think for yourself, and that ethical behaviour rests largely on tolerance and empathy for others, and respect for their beliefs, desires and ways of life. Concentration on differences rather than commonalities, and a failure to appreciate the rights of different stakeholders has led to appalling destruction and cruelty worldwide. This is often founded on a sense of ethnic, class or religious difference. If the world is to become a more peaceful place, it is vital that ethical decision making becomes an integral part of life for all of us. The ability personally to make the right ethical decisions in difficult circumstances and under pressure, taking account of all concerned, is a necessary ingredient for a good life. Am I Right? or Am I Right? introduces Dilemma Training(R) - a six-step method of ethical decision making, and the moral theories relevant to it. It examines the meaning of 'integrity' and then describes the training in action: in education, business, government, the media and the armed forces, and in combating substance abuse. It tracks the changes in the Western moral climate from a historical, social, cultural and perspective, with emaphasis on the historical development of people learning to 'think for themselves', and a description of ethical decision making in the context of religion. Dilemma Training strengthens people's ethical decision-making and enables them to recognise the right action in their own everyday lives. It is central to strengthening personal, social and corporate responsibility, and to help to identify key influences on the current moral climate. The book discusses some 'big ethical issues': environment, animals, racial equality, science and technology, capital punishment, euthanasia, and suicide. This is followed by examples from literature, Am I Right? or Am I Right? is written in a non-academic way for anyone who wants to know more about solving ethical dilemmas without necessarily referring to an external moral authority - for anyone who wants to be 'morally fit' - and who might also welcome the opportunity to look at various ethical issues in more depth.
