Why Ethics?
Daily life, with its ups and downs, with the good and the bad, offers a
challenge to a man, that of doing well and avoiding evil in his daily activities
and business. At the same time, as history and experience show, this is not
easy. Daily life and the history of the world contain a series of contrasting
situations: great scientific and technological advances co-exist with serious
forms of social and economic injustice; there are huge capitalist empires,
along with whole nations still living under the effects of underdevelopment
and political corruption. These contrasting situations reveal the need for a
radical personal and social conversation, capable of introducing justice,
solidarity, honesty, transparency and sincerity into our world.

meaning custom or behaviour. The concept of ethics
was originally proposed by the Greek philosopher

relating to daily life: the ethike theoria deals with the
study of, and gives criteria for the evaluation of
human behaviour. Since then, ethics has become one
of the major topics in Western philosophy when
