ETHICS AND THE COMPLEXITY OF TECHNOLOGY: A DESIGN APPROACH

In this article I will show how the conceptual framework for analyzing reality as developed in reformational philosophy can help us to get a fuller understanding of the ethics of technology than in popular reductionist views. Thereby I will use Caroline Whitbeck’s suggestion that ethical problems sh...
