Publisher Synopsis
"Schwenke (applied ethics, School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins U.), brings her training as a development practitioner and trained ethicist to the topic of morals as they relate to development issues in poor countries. Many of the anecdotes and experiences referred to in the book are placed in Uganda, where the author taught for a year. Nine key international development topics, including education, leadership, food security, gender identity and sexual orientation, and deliberative participation are examined from the perspective of universal ethical standards such as human dignity, essential freedoms, social justice, and equality." - Reference & Research Book News
