Praktische Philosophie, Ethik und Recht

The work provides an overview of current debates in political philosophy, ethics, and legal philosophy, highlighting their connections with law and legal policy. The range of topics covered extends from international law, human rights, democracy, and populism to environmental ethics, migration, digitalization, medical ethics, and climate policy, as well as issues of legal logic and argumentation theory, postcolonialism, forms of life, and artificial intelligence. In doing so, the work combines different philosophical approaches, thereby illustrating the diversity of discourses in contemporary practical philosophy. The common thread is the reference to law-its critique and its shaping. Particular emphasis has been placed on accessible language and interdisciplinary perspectives. The work is aimed at both students of law and the humanities, as well as scholars seeking to learn about fundamental debates and new developments in related disciplines.
