Special Issue on Applied Ethics and Moral Philosophy

Applied Ethics and Moral Philosophy is a branch of philosophy that explores practical ethical issues by applying moral principles to real-world situations. It bridges theoretical ethics with everyday challenges, addressing topics such as bioethics, environmental ethics, business ethics, and the ethics of technology. This field examines questions of right and wrong, justice, responsibility, and the moral implications of decisions in various contexts, such as healthcare, law, and social policy. By analyzing ethical dilemmas, it seeks to guide individuals and organizations in making morally sound choices, promoting social well-being, and fostering ethical decision-making in complex and evolving environments.
