Ethical Efficiency

978-1-84821-898-7 (ISBN)
The ethics of efficiency must be considered with regard to the logic of action or to economic, political, legal or scientific systems.
This book presents a question on the central theme of responsible research and innovation (RRI), which has an ethical influence on effective logics. The issue is to question the opportunity and modularities of an ethical effective influence on the logics of efficiency of research and innovation.
From the distinction of efficiency and effectiveness, lies the problem of efficacy, the ethical accord between the two. Thus appears the possibility of taking effective responsibility with respect to systematic injustices potentially linked to this efficiency. This book proposes categories to understand the ethical implications of research and innovation processes, under the aspect of their efficacy.
Virgil Cristian Lenoir has a PhD from the University of Paris IV in France and works as a consultant on the metaphysical traditions and meta-ethical questions. He is particularly interested in the ethics of efficiency.
