Ethics and values are important dimensions of water governance. We show how a "values approach" contributes to an understanding of global water governance, and how it complements other perspectives on governance, namely management, institutional capacity, and social-ecological systems. We connect these other approaches to their own value systems and the ethical attitudes they engender. We then offer a way to explicitly incorporate, and where necessary adjudicate, competing value systems through a values-based approach to governance. A case of the Santa Fe River in New Mexico, USA illustrates how value systems are reflected in water policies and how these values affect governance priorities, such as in environmental flows. The values-based approach... |

In a continuously expanding, globalizing, and industrializing organic market, organic consumers confront increasing complexity in organic product representation, labeling, and information that challenges how they build trust in organic products. We present a conceptual framework to analyze how consumers might build and practice trust in the organic agrifood chain. We asked specifically about the role of multicriteria assessment tools (MCATs) for trust building. We identified three consumer trust types: uninformed trust in labels (type 1); informed trust in extensive information, control, and certification (type 2); and informed and engaged trust in forms of close farmer–consumer relationships (type 3). Three concepts of... |

This paper focuses on the possibilities of ethnic marketing and its ethic connections. The differences found in our face-to-face interviews and analysing questionnaire data will provide opportunities for Hungarian small enterprises. Targeting ethnic groups for marketing purposes results in ethical difficulties. In Hungary, ethnic marketing is yet an inexperienced concept. Based on these ideas the authors examine the ins and outs of using ethnic marketing in case of Germans in Hungary. Consumers with German ethnic attitude really want German products and brands. At the same time, enterprises have to emphasise the products’ “Germanness” and character in a better/stronger way because this can help for better consumer decision making. |

Whereas roots of globalization are far reaching, it is primarily a modern age phenomenon. Modern business operation and the world economy are characterized by domination of multinational corporations, strong presence of the government in economy and the long-term tendency towards globalization in manufacturing, trading and consumption in the world. Containing both risks and opportunities, globalization is a problem of manifold nature. For some it means regression and falling into “neocolonialism”, the others glorify it. It is logical to ask the following questions: What are the consequences of globalization for governments, nations, companies and individuals? What are the business, social and ethical issues it causes? In one word, is it possible to be... |

Ethics and agriculture is a complex debate, but one in which agricultural economics students must be prepared to participate. There are many links between economics and ethic or moral philosophy. Classroom teaching tends to focus on discussion of issues involving behavioral ethics and disregards the teaching of philosophical ethics and its application in agricultural economics. A discussion is presented regarding the ethical context we have inherited in agricultural economics. I offer some broad moral philosophy concepts and an argument for providing students with tools to develop a philosophical ethics perspective of agricultural economics. |

In this study we have attempted, in collaboration with an agrifood company, to compare and contrast the responses of consumers and professionals to the same set of situations raising ethical questions, in order to highlight the differences and the similarities of viewpoint between these two groups of stakeholders. In order to do this, we constructed multi-stakeholder scenarios comprising a description of the situation and the various possible approaches to managing the situation. We constructed two scenarios, dealing with the origin of the gelatin used in the company's products and the company's product information on livestock feed (GMO). This allowed us to: - study the extent of the professionals' ethical perceptions and the possible compromises between... |

Harvey, James S., Jr.. |
In this paper I consider the question of whether ethical decision-making affects a person’s happiness. Using cross-country data from the World Values Survey, I find that people who agree that it is never justifiable to engage in ethically-questionable behaviors report that they are more satisfied with their life than people who are more tolerant of unethical conduct, even after controlling for other factors known to affect self-reported happiness. The size of the ethics effect is roughly similar to that of a modest increase in income, being married and attending church, while the effect is smaller than that of having poor health or being dissatisfied with one’s personal finances. These results are robust across the four countries studied (the US, Canada,... |

The objective of this paper is to weave hermeneutic considerations and philosophies concerning ethics, economy and climate, with a specific focus on the relationship between Kant's categorical imperative and the question of improved sustainability. The economic perspective of Georgescu-Roegen has been considered, to this end. Although economy, ethics and biology constitute distinct fields of specialization, this work seeks to show reasons for which this perspective could be seen as an intersection between the three disciplines. The article concludes with the message of Georgescu-Roegan, held in his saying “minimal bioeconomic program” in accordance with the fundamental precepts of the Kantian ethics, in respect to the question of sustainability. |

Megállapítható, hogy a bioetanol adózási helyzete kedvezőbb, mint a biodízelé. Az etanol forgalma dinamikusan növekszik. Magyarországon jelenleg több mint 200 benzinkúton kapható E85 üzemanyag. Annak érdekében, hogy Magyarországon legalább 10% legyen a közlekedési szektorban a „bio” arány, célszerű első lépésként az üzemanyagokban lévő biokomponens-arányt a jelenlegi 4,8%-ról 6,0%-ra, majd 1-2 év múlva 8,0%-ra emelni. A biodízelnél, például a B40- ---------------------------------------------- Apparently the status of bioethanol in terms of taxation is more favourable than that of biodiesel. Ethanol sales are growing dynamically. The E85 fuel is currently sold at more than 200 petrol stations in Hungary. In order to increase the share of “bio” to at... |

Áreas verdes, ruas e praças arborizadas em locais urbanos são características que apenas recentemente adquiriram relevância no mundo ocidental. Parece que os habitantes antigos das cidades não valorizavam uma estreita proximidade com plantas. Neste artigo, sugere-se que isso é uma conseqüência de uma ruptura entre o homem e a natureza, que ocorreu na emergência da tradição judaico-cristã na história da civilização ocidental. A ausência de laços entre natureza e cristianismo é evidente na ausência de árvores, jardins e outros aspectos representativos da natureza em torno de templos cristãos. O cristianismo também representou o fim da mitologia, um processo que conduziu ao desenvolvimento do pensamento racional, favorecendo assim o desenvolvimento da... |

This article firstly introduces the Special Feature "Applying Ecology", addressing the use of ecological information for dealing with conservation and environmental problems in Chile. This is part of a series of special features in Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, intended for exploring the contribution of naturalists in making sound decisions in social-environmental planning. However, the low involvement of Chilean biologists has become a factor potentially affecting the quality of environmental decisions and policies, and increasing the chance of unwanted results, which raises some open questions about ethics. In such a context, the second part of the article analyzes the issue of involvement from different perspectives, considering its causes and... |

Laboratory Animal Science requires a multidisciplinary approach. Professionals working with laboratory animals should have the knowledge on how to choose the right animal model and its speciesspecific ethological needs, how to choose the best anesthesia, analgesia and euthanasia protocol, how to refine the care procedures including recognition and treatment of pain in order to improve the animals welfare , as well as how to design an experimental and to conduct statistical analysis of the experimental data. To meet these needs, professionals who perform, take part, supervise experimental procedures on animals, or take care of laboratory animals, should receive training, with programs aimed to implement the 3Rs and to promote the welfare of laboratory... |

Objective: To identify and consequently to avoid situations that subject animals to suffering as abioethical issue. There are two basic reasons to make it a complex subject: pain and suffering aresubjective phenomena that depend on individual experience, and animais, as well as human babies,do not give us verbal information on what they feel. Purposes: To analyze the subject from a scientificperspective, sustained by the rational method. To evaluate several situations in wmch animals areused: scientific experiments, teaching purposes, production, exhibition in circuses, parks and zoas,etc. The use ofsedem and spurs in rodeos, training and shows as cause for animal pain and sufferingis also stl.ldied. Materials & Method: The similarity between the... |
